4th of July, 2009

June 24, 2009 -- We are currently taking reservations for 4th of July weekend. Sites are still available in the RV park for pop-ups or smaller trailers, primitive campsites, and picnic sites. The lake level as of this morning was 35.28 feet below spillway. The boat ramp is available for boats 22 feet and smaller, and we prefer 4-wheel drive vehicles for launching. IF you have 2-wheel drive, we will need to assist you back up the ramp with our bobcat. Therefore, the boat ramp is only open from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. for safety reasons and no lighting in the back. Due to the lake level, we will not have a swimming area until the water is back over the beach and a swim rope can be installed. Friday/Saturday p.m. dock fishing has been pretty good, with the catch being mostly large stripers.

FOR SATURDAY, THE 4TH OF JULY, IF YOU PLAN TO STAY ON THE LAKE FOR THE FIREWORKS (AS YET UNCONFIRMED), YOU MUST HAVE A 4-WHEEL DRIVE VEHICLE AND BE BACK AND OUT OF THE PARK NO LATER THAN 11:00 P.M. FOR GATE CLOSURE. ALL 2-WHEEL DRIVE VEHICLES MUST BE OUT BY 8:00 P.M. DUE TO BOBCAT ASSISTANCE. WE THANK YOU FOR YOUR UNDERSTANDING AND COOPERATION.
