Rendezvous Beach Rentals
Rendezvous Beach Rentals sits at the west end of the day-use beach inside Bear Lake State Park's Rendezvous Beach area, near Laketown, Utah, about the southern tip of the lake. It's the same Bear Lake Fun rental network as Marina Rentals and Bear Lake Funtime, but here the draw is calm, shallow water that's especially good for families, paddleboards, kayaks, and canoes.
What to expect
Because Rendezvous Beach sits at the lake's south end, the water here tends to be shallower and calmer than at the marina, making it a favorite for stand-up paddleboarding, kayaking, and canoeing, alongside the usual motorized options like boats and Sea-Doos. The rental shop also carries boating and fishing supplies, runs a small fast-food grill for a quick bite without leaving the beach, and offers cozy camper cabin rentals (sleeping 6 to 8) for anyone who wants to stay the night close to the water without a full RV setup.
Hours and pricing
Rendezvous Beach itself is open roughly May 1 through late October, with park gates open 7am to 10pm and quiet hours from 10pm to 7am. Rental hours generally track the park's day-use hours in season. A day-use entrance fee applies per vehicle to enter the park, on top of whatever equipment you rent.
Location and parking
Rendezvous Beach State Park, Laketown, UT, roughly 2 miles northwest of Laketown at the southern end of Bear Lake. There's parking throughout the day-use area, and it's a longer drive from Garden City than the marina, worth planning as a half-day or full-day trip rather than a quick stop.
Local tips
If your group includes younger kids or less confident swimmers, Rendezvous Beach's calmer, shallower water is a more relaxed choice than the open lake near the marina. The camper cabins are worth knowing about even if you're already staying in a vacation rental nearby, they're a fun option for a change of pace or for overflow guests during a bigger family gathering.
