The Drift Deck

WHAT TO EXPECT

Your private lake day, from arrival to last ride.

One group at a time. The Drift Deck is a private lakeside event space, not a shared rental dock. When you book, the entire deck and all three personal watercraft are exclusively yours. Up to 10 guests per session.

WHAT TO BRING

  • Valid photo ID for any guest who plans to ride
  • Texas boater safety course cert (if driving and born after Sept 1, 1993). Learn more
  • Food and drinks for the grill and fridge (BYOB-friendly)
  • Sunscreen (we have some on hand, but we recommend bringing your own)
  • Shoes or sandals with grip (the hill down to the dock is steep)
  • Solo cups, paper plates, and plastic silverware (we've got you covered on the basics)

ARRIVAL & CHECK-IN

Park in the gravel lot if space allows. We strongly recommend carpooling on weekends. Parking is limited.

Meet your full group at the bottom of the gondola 30 minutes before your session.

Your host will meet you there, check IDs, and walk everyone down to the dock together. The marina is gated, so try to arrive on time. If you're running late, just text your host and they'll come grab you when you arrive.

ONCE YOU ARRIVE

Your dedicated host handles setup, safety, and launch, then stays out of the way so you can enjoy the deck on your own terms. Need help? Just radio.

  • Your host walks the group down to the dock and shows you around
  • Waivers signed (required for both drivers and passengers)
  • Safety video and briefing, followed by a short demonstration on the water
  • Walkthrough of the watercraft, deck, grill, and everything else
  • Walkie talkies handed out so your group and your host stay connected
  • Your host helps you launch, then stays out of the way. The deck is yours.

WORRIED ABOUT THE WEATHER?

We've got your back.

If the day's a wash, we'll offer a full refund.

Or partial if you came and just missed the riding. Cloudy and light rain don't qualify.

The longer story, if you want it:

Forget the forecast. Austin stations call for storms four times a week and it's slightly cloudy three of them. It's Texas. The forecast is wrong out of professional courtesy. We're at the lake every day, so we'll know what's actually going on. If something's going to wreck your day, we'll text you and offer a refund before you have to ask.

Honestly, some of our best afternoons have been guests grilling, drinks in hand, music up, watching a storm roll in from the deck. So if you'd rather come anyway, the deck is yours.

The kids running the marina gas pumps will also take any excuse to clock out early. If they bail and we can't fuel up, same deal.

Texas weather flips fast and the lake usually plays through, which is why cloudy skies, intermittent light rain, and scattered showers don't qualify.

CANCELLATIONS

We staff based on your booking, so timing matters.

When you book, we line up a host for your session. They may turn down other work to be there for you, so our cancellation tiers reflect that real commitment.

  • 5+ days before your session: full refund
  • 48 hours to 5 days: 50% refund
  • Less than 48 hours, or no-show: no refund

Cancel from your booking dashboard or text us at the number you used to book. Full details on thecancellation policy.
