A nice stay for us, but with a few drawbacks. The restaurant was closed for the 2 days we were there. The power pedestal voltage waivered between 130v and 139v, so our inverter/charger wouldn't work. The last issue makes me feel bad for the ownership. They have invested in some really nice floating docks, but the Trex-type boards are not supported well enough. Many broken boards, which can cause injury if you step in the wrong place. Otherwise a nice place that is getting even better.

Thank you for your review. In regards to your concerns. The restaurant has been closed for Mondays and Tuesdays for three years now. For the simple reason we cannot properly staff the facility. We have an incredible team at our restaurant, and we would wear them out if we asked them to work seven days. Our solution was to build our Container bar, which has a kitchen. It was open this Monday and we were serving some great brisket sliders and tacos, along with our great burgers, Hot Dogs, and Chicken cordon Bleu sandwiches. Unfortunately Tuesday we were rocked by Thunderstorms and were unable to open. So sorry for the inconvenience. The Voltage being high on the south dock is intentional, we have boost transformers added due to the fact that we are in a region that only provides 208Volt power. On really hot days when the dock is fully loaded the voltage was dropping to less than 100V per leg. If we had known of your issues we could have relocated you to one of our other docks and your systems would have worked just fine. Additionally the parameters preset in your inverters can be adjusted to compensate for this. That is something you may want to look into should you run across this situation in the future. In regards to the docks. yes we have had some board failures but we assure you that no is going to get hurt, and the panels are being repaired one by one. We had one person trip and fall two years ago but it was on one of the boards we put in the space between two dock sections and not one of the dock panels. we are sorry for your concerns and issues and we all work continuously to improve our property. We sincerely hope you have the time to stop again and I can talk personally with you about these things. Thanks for the stay!!

Very nice folks. Facility has everything you'd expect. Even the wifi works! The only minor issue is the overall decay of the place. Not bad though !

Very nice one-night stay. Dockmaster is excellent.

This is a terrible location due to the lack of any protection from wakes that sweep through all day and well into late evening. You'll need all your fenders and then some. The place is minimally staffed. No one answered radio or telephone when we were approaching dock. No showers. No wifi.

Hello, we are sorry that your experience was not exceptional. We are consistently making improvements and your feedback will be taken into account. We've completely replaced our Wifi system and we've been exploring wave attenuation solutions to protect us from the ferry wakes that roll through during daylight and evening hours.

Good help on docks and with pumpout. Like many marinas, the wifi is basically useless. Marinas should ban the stupid political flags. They make a bad impression on visitors.

Small place, limited number of transient slips, but everything we needed for an overnight stop. Water depth of 6-7 ft. 30A power, showers, fuel, pumpout, and good wifi.

Very happy that we stopped here. Only a few transient spots, but we got lucky. Nice folks, nice facility, well-maintained. What more could we want ?

Nice facility. Long walk or Uber ride to anything. Great staff. Onsite restaurant is good. Wifi is basically unusable.

This facility should not be regarded as a "marina". This is an RV campground that has a number of very small docks. It's fine for 20ft runabouts, but not suitable for most cruising boats. Campground had a faint odor of sewage and steel plant across the river had its own smell. If you just need a place to get off the lake, it works. Just dont expect much. (Not worth the price charged)
