Rendezvous at Beaver Lake
July 14 and 15, 2023
Summertime in Beautiful Northwest Arkansas
Nestled in the Ozark Mountains of northwest Arkansas, Beaver Lake is a nature lover’s delight during all seasons. The clear, deep water from the White River basin offers long stretches of natural scenery and cool shadows beside the towering limestone bluffs.
The Rendezvous at Beaver Lake 2023 offers a mid-summer chance to gather with vintage boat enthusiasts for a delightful weekend at a “quiet” lake for boating and meals together – just plain fun.
A few photos shared on Facebook from the weekend rendezvous…
Special thanks to Kevin Hogan for his help planning and being the MC for Friday night dinner at Colton’s, Kathy Parker for organizing the registrations, and Brendan Jensen for helping boats needing assistance Saturday. Thanks to Ron Lyon for leading the cruise to Hogscald. With all the help it made for an awesome event.
