Boating

Nothing like hopping on a boat and enjoying the Colorado River. Parker is home to a wonderful boating community that embraces responsible newcomers. Whether you want to celebrate, have fun on the water, or spend a relaxing afternoon on a river, there’s no place like our little desert oasis. We also rent kayaks and paddle boards for $20/h or $50/day!

Nearby Casinos

Try your luck at the slots or at a poker table. Bring your friends for some friendly competition and have some fun. You might win some and lose some, but if you’re after thrill you’ll be in the right place. Bluewater Resort and Casino is just an 8 minute drive from here. Forget about time and live in the moment. If you get on a hot streak, don’t worry about going far to cool off since all of the casinos have a riverfront view.

Jet Ski or Water Ski

If taking it easy on the water isn’t your thing, rent a jet ski from Parker Watercraft Rentals. Go up and down the river with speed and get your adrenaline pumping. Ride alone or with your friends, it is fun regardless of how many people are also doing it.

Drink on the River

There’s no better way to cool off than to grab a cold drink. Visit one of the floating bars like Foxes Floating Bar. The best part is you can arrive by the water. Grab a bite to eat and a cold one to fuel you for more fun and excitement!

Please drink responsibly and do not drive under the influence.
