Club Lake Ahoy

Club Lake Ahoy was a water park built around an artificial lake in Chesapeake featuring diving platforms, metal towers, and various water-based attractions for guests. The facility provided changing rooms, rest areas on concrete platforms, and multiple spots around the water for swimming and recreation.

The park was created using an artesian well to fill a concrete-lined basin with transported sand, forming an artificial swimming environment. This engineering approach allowed for the development of a recreational water destination for the community.

The establishment provided entertainment through its snack bar, pool tables, video games, and pinball machines housed in the main building.

The park was easily accessible with bathhouses and multiple rest areas distributed around the water. Visitors could enjoy various water activities based on their comfort level and skill, from leisurely swimming to diving attempts.

A wooden tower supported a zip line that stretched across the water, letting visitors glide from the structure into the lake below. This thrilling feature made the venue stand out as an unusual recreational destination for the area.
