Footloose Cycle Cruise and Fortune Bay Resort Casino to launch thrilling new lake experience!
July 5, 2024
TOWER— Lake Vermilion is set to become the hotspot of the summer with the launch of the Footloose Cycle Cruise!
An Open House has been set for 3 p.m. on Wednesday, July 10th at Fortune Bay Resort Casino’s Marina. There will be complimentary 20-minute cruises, plus some beverages and snacks to enjoy.
The Open House, which runs until 6 p.m., is free and open to the public. However, you must register by Tuesday, July 9th for a time slot by visiting www.footloosecyclecruise.com
“This one-of-a-kind lake cruising adventure features a stunning 35-foot cycle cruise boat, boasting 12 pedal stations that propel a 6-foot pedal wheel,” said Footloose owner Bill Cox. “With certified captains at the helm, passengers can enjoy the ride worry-free while taking in the beautiful surroundings.”
And if you prefer to kick back and not pedal, no worries—the vessel has a four-stroke 70 horsepower motor to take you on a memorable cruise on Lake Vermilion.
Footloose Cycle Cruise and Fortune Bay Resort Casino staff have been busy booking group tours leading up to the Open House.
“We’ve already had several inquiries, plus our sales team is pitching the Footloose Cycle Cruise to groups that are coming up north,” said Fortune Bay’s Brian K. Anderson. “We even have a bachelor party that wants to try it out, so we think this partnership will be a win-win for both of us.”
Fortune Bay General Manager Josh Thurmes concurred.
“We’re all excited about this opportunity to work with the Footloose team,” said Thurmes. “I think our guests will be thoroughly impressed with the tours as they will get a chance to experience a cruise on one of the state’s best lakes.”
The Footloose Cycle Cruise is fully equipped with modern amenities, such as its 16-foot glossy bar, which includes several built-in ice coolers, USB ports for charging devices, and vibrant LED-lit cupholders.
Guests can enjoy the 100-watt stereo system and speakers, which connect directly to Bluetooth devices. This allows them to control their music while they enjoy a frosty beverage and great food selections from Fortune Bay Resort Casino’s culinary team.
“We had an extremely successful first cruise on June 30th,” said Footloose’s Jessa Boyer. “The guests wanted to pedal the whole time and had a phenomenal experience. They were hanging out, enjoying one another’s company, and occasionally stopped pedaling just to enjoy Lake Vermilion’s views.”
Footloose Cycle Cruise and Fortune Bay Resort Casino are transforming the lake experience in this exciting partnership. Guests have the option to pre-purchase delicious food and drinks through the Footloose Cycle Cruise website. Fortune Bay Resort Casino’s team will deliver food and beverages directly to the boat, ensuring convenience and enjoyment throughout your cruise experience.
For the safety and comfort of all guests, only non-glass beverage containers are allowed onboard. This ensures a secure environment while you have fun on the water.
“Footloose Cycle Cruise caters to everyone from ages 6 years old and up who want to cruise Lake Vermilion,” said Cox. “The cruises are perfect for corporate events, parties, celebrations, and anyone interested in exploring the lake in a fun and unique way.”
