Cruise Lake Hamilton with Captain Jack

Travelers Choice award

Boating with Captain Jack is convenient. With a Charter Cruise we can usually pick you up from your dock, depending upon the location.

Captain Jack's cruises and charters are less expensive than renting your own pontoon. Only $45 per person for our Day Cruises and $60 per person for our Sunset Cruise.

Boat amenities

Make Reservation

Better than renting your own boat.

The pilot of a boat on Lake Hamilton has to watch for boats pulling tubes and skiers, tubers and skiers that have been dumped into the water, wave runners circling everywhere, fishing boats with lines in the water, plus other boats. Relax and let Captain Jack cruise you around the lake. Plus, it costs a lot less.

Why go through the hassle of renting your own boat? With Captain Jack's Lake Cruises there are no deposits, sales tax, fuel charges, or worries about damaging the boat or bringing it back late. You can relax and not stress over hitting another boat or running over a skier in the water. Lake time is all about having a fun and relaxing time.

With our private charters, you get all the benefits with none of the worries. Call to book a charter cruise: 501-547-2743

Though riverboats don’t provide a whole lot of trade or transportation for Arkansans anymore, there’s more than one riverboat in the Natural State. Today those riverboats are focused on giving folks the opportunity to explore Arkansas waterways in a unique way. One riverboat in particular is especially impressive, and that glorious vessel is the Belle of Hot Springs. We’re not just talking about one of the cruises you can take on the Belle of Hot Springs today, we’re talking about several.

  • Sharon D 0 contributions 5.0 of 5 bubbles Beautiful Scenery We did the afternoon sightseeing tour.

  • Todd P 0 contributions 3.0 of 5 bubbles Great Views I took my family out on Lake Hamilton for a Saturday late cruise. The staff is beyond friendly and wonderful.

  • Melody T 0 contributions 5.0 of 5 bubbles Dinner and dancing and history Food was very good...BBQ and smoked chicken. Dessert is just store bought cake. Adult and kid beverages are available to purchase if you don't want the tea. It was a tad hot because so many people were going in and out (no one was on the upper level to sell drinks, so those that did not purchase the dinner were coming in for drinks). I suggest you order...go outside...come in eat...go back outside...come in for dessert....go back outside....Or you just do the ride without buying the dinner but the food was quite good.

  • PoohBear1004 0 contributions 5.0 of 5 bubbles Dinner Cruise on Lake Hamilton Relaxing date night dinner cruise on beautiful Lake Hamilton. Booked for Friday evening launch at 5pm, 2 hours long. Actually got off about 30m late but ended about 45m after 7. Ordered catfish and the bbq plate. Both were very good! Also included dessert! Nice evening for cruise on Lake Hamilton! Staff were accommodating and friendly! Crowd was light but loud within the dining area! Advertising stated there was plenty of parking however had the boat been fully booked I’m not quite sure where that would have been. We arrived shortly before 5 and parking was nearly full! Call for tickets and order food prior to arrival. Fun evening! Read more Written October 24, 2018

  • TexasZuggie 0 contributions 1.0 of 5 bubbles Disappointing Experience We took the sightseeing tour on the Belle and were terribly disappointed. It was a beautiful evening to be out on the lake so we went to the top deck when we boarded. The crowd was very small, there were only about ten people on the top deck. We enjoyed what we saw although the boat traveled very slowly and only traveled a very short distance. The narrative given could have been more informative. At one point they started blaring loud music down below. Disco music blaring at 6PM does not put me in a party mood, I would have preferred a calmer atmosphere to enjoy the beautiful lake. The first and second deck areas were dirty and smelled of mold. We chose not to stay inside and went to the outside rear first level deck to enjoy the evening and were informed by smoking employees that we were in the designated smoking area. The boat needs maintenance all over, the employees were rude and service was none existent. Could have been so good, so disappointing. Read more Written August 23, 2018
  • CharlotteA91 0 contributions 1.0 of 5 bubbles Disappointing The speed of the boat not that we expected some high speed trip, but man there were times it seems like we had stopped. You really see very very little of the lake. It is at 5pm so you don't see the sunset. I felt really disappointed for the people that had the dinner portion the meal just looked awful. There are not many options out there but find something else or skip it. Read more Written August 6, 2018
