Adirondack Private Charter Cruises

Are you looking for a unique place to celebrate your wedding, have a rehearsal dinner, anniversary, birthday party, family or school reunion, or corporate outing?

Old Forge Lake Cruises offers two very exclusive vessels for charter, the “Clearwater” and the “Zilpha”. A cruise on the Clearwater can accommodate up to 100 passengers and one on the “Zilpha” can accommodate up to 49 passengers.

They are available for charters in Old Forge, during the warm months of spring, summer and fall. Regardless of the time of year, you will be amazed by the breathtaking experience aboard these vessels.

We invite you to have your wedding ceremony and wedding reception aboard the Clearwater or Zilpha. This is an excellent setting for an intimate wedding. There is no need to book two venues, and shuttle guests between locations. The Adirondacks and the Fulton Chain of Lakes is an excellent place for you to begin your lives together. There is nothing more romantic than a wedding aboard our vessels - your wedding will be a cherished memory for years to come.

Looking for a place to celebrate your rehearsal dinner or special wedding anniversary? You might feel that your options are limited, since the banquet halls only serve large groups of people and going to a restaurant wont convey the specialness of the occasion. You would be able to have your cruise with just your friends and family on board. The day of your event our Captain and Crew will attentively handle every detail, execute your plans and enthusiastically welcome you and your guests!

Our charter cruises leave a lasting impression on your guests. Unlike traditional settings, the ambiance is unmatched on our vessels. We can also accommodate any event - birthday parties, family or school reunions, corporate meetings, or high school reunions. Our vessels are perfect for client entertaining and company parties.

Every detail of your cruise will be expertly managed. Both vessels offer the same level of service and a variety catering options. We are always available to help you determine, which vessel would be the most appropriate option for your venue. Old Forge Lake Cruise is able to accommodate everything from brunch to a full dinner buffet, including cocktails and entertainment. In addition, we will help you with all of the preparations from catering to boat decorations and accommodations.
