Wake Riderz is a locally women-led Lake Austin boat rental company, since 2015, offering private captained pontoon boat rentals departing from the Loop 360 Boat Ramp under the Pennybacker Bridge — the exact same address (5019 N Capital of Texas Hwy) as “Float On,” “XploreATX,” “Tide Up Boat Rentals,” “Wave in Water,” and “Austin Rental Boats,” all researched earlier this session. With a 5.0-star rating across more than 250 Google reviews, the business promises a safe, reliable, stress-free experience.
2-Hour, 3-Hour, and 4-Hour Pontoon Rentals, alongside a Sunset Cruise option, all run with a licensed, safety-certified captain — no boating experience required. Every rental includes up to 13 passengers, fuel, a Bluetooth sound system, full and partial sun shading (double Bimini tops), a built-in cooler, a floating lily pad, life vests, a 140 HP outboard engine, and USB charging ports. Weekday captained pontoon rentals start at $378 for 2 hours, with larger groups accommodated across multiple boats for 20-50 guests.
Beyond standard rentals, Wake Riderz offers Corporate Boat Events for team outings and client entertainment, Guided Lake Austin Boat Tours to iconic landmarks and hidden spots, and dedicated Bachelorette Party Boat Rentals with access to Lake Austin Party Cove and other popular swim/hangout areas.
With consistently glowing reviews, guest testimonials repeatedly name specific captains — Jesse, Spencer, and Ronaldo — along with reservations staff member Kelly, for going above and beyond to make bachelorette parties, birthdays, and family outings feel genuinely special, describing easygoing personalities, working sound systems, and memorable stops at Party Cove.
Boarding and return location is Loop 360 Boat Ramp, 5019 N Capital of Texas Hwy, Austin, TX 78746, open daily 9am-8pm; a Travis County entry fee (cash only) applies, and each passenger must complete a digital waiver before departure.
