The Bachelor Run

Highest-energy day from the Hudson Bend launch

6 stops~19.0 mi · 51 min cruising

A drinking-over-food, boats-everywhere loop: park most of the day at Devil's Cove, hit one or two dock-and-dine bars, then slow down for the sunset before heading back. Times are a guide, not a rule — pull up whatever you feel like next.

The main event

Raft up, swim, blast music. This is where most of the day goes — stay 2–3 hours.

Dock the crew for frozen drinks and burgers. Swap in Stumpy's if you want better food.

Peak energy

The most energetic lakeside bar, and an easy ride back toward Hudson Bend. Live music, swim area, margaritas.

Slow down for sunset

Idle the coves with music. Heads up: real sunset in late July is ~8:27 PM, so linger longer if you want the actual show.

Back to the dock

Wind down and head in. Nav lights on if you stayed out past dark.
