As the days get longer and the temperatures warmer, summer seems not so far away. Our moms across The Local Moms Network are loving one local spot for good old-fashioned adventures for the whole family.
If you spent any time by or on the water growing up, you know that water sports like wakeboarding or waterskiing are not only tons of fun for kids, but the experience also builds confidence and creates lasting memories. At Lakeside Watersports, they make it easy—and safe—to create those core moments for your family.
Here are 5 reasons we are loving Lakeside Watersports.
Safety First: Lakeside Watersports is committed to safety. Every instructor is CPR-certified and trained to ensure a fun, safe, and exciting experience for riders of all skill levels. In addition, all staff must complete Lakeside Watersports Online Training Course.
Affordable Fun on the Water: We all know the amount of time and costs associated with owning your own boat. Lakeside Watersports recognizes this and has made a commitment to bringing the best value in watersports to Candlewood Lake. The team is passionate about watersports and wants to share their passion with all customers.
Convenient Location: Candlewood Lake is located in Northern Fairfield County and is easy to get to when traveling on I-84. Head right to Brookfield and find Lakeside Watersports conveniently set up dockside. Staying on the lake this summer? Schedule a pick-up and the team is happy to pick you and drop you off at your dock.
Easy to Plan a Day on the Lake: Have a child who’s interested in learning how to wakeboard, water ski or tube and you don’t know where to start? Book time with Lakeside Watersports and their team of watersports instructors will show you an amazing time out on the water. The team is made up of expert instructors and Watersport enthusiasts who live on the lake and know it better than anyone else. They will work one on one with your child to safely teach them the basics of watersports.
Perfect Idea for an End of the Year Celebration or Summer Birthday Party: If you’re looking for a fun activity to celebrate the end of the school year, book an afternoon out on Candlewood Lake with Lakeside Watersports. Boats can hold up to 14 guests and you have the ability to book the amount of time you would like to spend on the water, making it a fun & affordable way for a group of several families to mark the end of the year!
