Roads were tight seems like a good park

laurie, the boss is absolutely rude and in charge of taking phone calls but when you call with questions she doesn’t answer and refused to redirect me to someone who could answer. she was very rude and dismissive and did not care to help solve my issue or help with what i originally called about. would not stay there unfortunately after this experience.

We used this boat landing to launch our pontoon boat in. It is one of the better boat landings because there is a large parking lot with many well marked parking spaces for trucks and trailers after you put in. We just used the boat launch, but there is a really nice picnic area right next to it.

My parents live here in the winter months and I can't say enough great things about this community! Well maintained, friendly people, near a boat launch to the river, and LOTS of activities for everyone! My kids especially enjoyed the Sparkling pool! So happy my parents found such a wonderful spot to enjoy their retirement years 😊
