About Captain Jake

AHOY!

Growing up in Northwest Missouri, I spent a lot of my time outdoors, taking advantage of all the watersports the area had to offer. From fishing and boating to waterskiing, I have been an avid enthusiast of all water activities for years. In fact, my mother jokingly claims I was waterskiing before I was even born!

After college at Northwest Missouri State University, I embarked on an unforgettable three-summer adventure as a watersports instructor at Brant Lake in upstate New York, teaching kids of all ages (5-15) the joys of the water. It was an absolute blast!

Kansas City had a brief hold on me, but Branson stole my heart in April 2014. Now, with my USCG Master Captain license and a crew of amazing supporters by my side. I’m thrilled to offer you the best Branson lake experience through Captain Jake’s Lake Adventures.

And guess what? Branson agrees! We were honored to be awarded the Best of Branson 2023 Silver Award – a testament to our commitment to creating unforgettable memories for our guests.

Thanks for considering Captain Jake’s Lake Adventures for your Branson adventure, see you on the water!
