Moorage slip reservations are available April 15 to Sept. 15 and we suggest making a reservation during the busy summer months.

Stand up paddle boarding and kayaking are fun ways to get out on the water. Park Lake has a lively, social atmosphere while Deep Lake offers up a more tranquil and remote experience. Try catching trout for dinner in Dry Falls Lake.
