◆ Beaver Lake
Sailing & a Private Chef
A private sailing lesson from a licensed sea captain aboard a 30ft sailing yacht, with an exclusive meal from a private chef.
Arkansas’s largest reservoir — 28,000 acres of clear Ozark water — a licensed sea captain, and a private chef who knows exactly what to do with it.
Lift off from Thaden Field and in under ten minutes the forested bluffs of Beaver Lake fill the windshield below you. You touch down at the Lost Bridge Village marina, roughly nineteen miles from Bentonville, where a 30ft sailing yacht and its licensed sea captain are already rigged and waiting.
The captain hands you the helm. This is a genuine sailing lesson — trimming, tacking, reading the wind off the bluffs — not a ride with a wheel to hold. Below, a private chef works the galley and plates a meal that belongs nowhere else on earth: local ingredients, moving water, bluff light sliding across the hull.
Stay for the afternoon, anchor for sunset, or extend into an overnight charter when the mood calls for it. The lake stretches in every direction, and the only deadline is the one you set.
How the day flies
Four steps, one unforgettable afternoon.
Depart Thaden Field
Meet your pilot in Bentonville and lift off straight over the Ozarks — no car, no traffic, no winding lake road.
Land at Lost Bridge marina
Touch down at the Lost Bridge Village marina on Beaver Lake’s north shore, where the yacht and its licensed captain are ready to cast off.
Take the helm, chef aboard
Learn to sail her in open water — or anchor in a tucked-away cove — while the chef prepares your meal in the galley below.
Anchor for sunset
Drop anchor in a quiet inlet, swim off the stern, and watch the bluffs go amber. Stay aboard overnight or fly home before dark.
