About Chesapeake Boathouse

The Chesapeake Boathouse was the first structure built in the Boathouse District along the newly revitalized Oklahoma River in downtown Oklahoma City. Hailed by many as a landmark presence along the river, the design is the vision of Oklahoma City architect Rand Elliott with primary funding for the project provided by Chesapeake Energy Corporation. 

Located south of Bricktown, the Boathouse is the center for outdoor adventure along the Oklahoma River, from rowing to kayaking, dragon boating, paddle boating, stand up paddle boarding, indoor fitness classes, and outdoor cycling and running along the Oklahoma River Trails. Sign up for a Learn to Row class, explore the area on a kayak or bike, or bring your office down for an afternoon of team building aboard a dragon boat! OKC RIVERSPORT offers the RIVERSPORT Pass, which provides access to a variety of programs, activities, equipment and facilities in the Boathouse District. Learn more at riversportokc.org.

The Chesapeake Boathouse also offers a picturesque location for meetings, receptions and weddings.

Features of the $3.5 million facility include:

- Deck, lobby, and event room for receptions and meetings
- Boat bays to store up to 124 rowing shells

- A panoramic 24-ft. wall of glass overlooking the deck, river, and         
  reflecting pool

- Event room with a 62-foot window revealing the boat bays

- Fully-equipped fitness/training room overlooking the river
