Canyon Lake is one of the lakes closest to the Greater Phoenix area, southeast of Phoenix in Apache Junction, Arizona. It is on the Apache Trail, probably the best known scenic drive in central Arizona.
The Dolly Steamboat has a 1.5 hour minute-narrated nature cruise and a 2.5 hour twilight dinner cruise. The trip takes place on a popular, lovely lake through the scenic canyon. If you are lucky, you'll see some local wildlife on the daytime cruises! From time to time, there are lunch cruises, astronomy cruises, and other special events.
