**Seasonal Note**
Lake season runs from Memorial Day to Labor Day, when marinas operate on regular hours and water levels are ideal for boating. In spring, fall, and winter, the weather and lake is beautiful but the water is colder and often lower in our cove, which may make dock tie-up difficult.
The closest boat launch is Sugar Hollow Marina, and local boat rentals are available nearby.
