What Party Cove actually is
On summer weekends, boats raft up in Percy Priest’s famous cove — music, floats, swimming, and the particular joy of a lake day with a few hundred of your soon-to-be friends. Want the scene? Your captain anchors you in the middle of it. Want your own private cove instead? They know six quieter ones. Either way, you get slides, floats, and BYOB coolers — the cove is the venue, the boat is the VIP section.

How it works
Cove questions
When is Party Cove busiest?
Saturday afternoons in summer are the full scene; Sundays are mellower; weekdays are gloriously empty. Tell your captain the vibe you want.
Can we get in the water there?
Yes — swimming, slides, and the lily pad happen right off the boat at anchor.
Is it family-appropriate?
Weekends get rowdy (it’s in our name). For family days, your captain will anchor in a calmer cove — just say the word.
Can we bring our own alcohol?
Yes — BYOB is welcome for guests 21+. No glass on board: cans, plastic, and cups only. Coolers with ice are a great idea.
Do we need boating experience?
None. Every charter includes a licensed captain who drives, anchors, and knows every cove on Percy Priest. You are 100% guest.
The cove is waiting. So is your VIP section.
Private slide boat + a captain who knows exactly where to park it.
