The Austin Pedal Barge stands out from other party boats on Lake Travis with its exceptional amenities and unique offerings. Unlike many boats, it features a built-in restroom for added convenience.

The boat also includes a lily pad for water lounging and boasts the best Bluetooth sound system on the lake. Additionally, it offers multiple coolers in different sizes with ice on board, keeping drinks cold throughout the trip. Unlike most party boats that require full-group rentals, the Austin Pedal Barge sells individual tickets, making it an excellent choice for solo adventurers or smaller groups looking to join the fun.
