Boater Reviews
Went to go scuba diving. Really steep boat ramp, so be prepared when having to carry tanks down. There were not supposed to be any motorized boats launching from this location but there were. Also, motorized boats we're NOT paying attention or staying away from dive flags so be cautious about this as well! Park ranger that was checking for hanging tags was very friendly.
With a nice area to fish in. The area is very clean and well-maintained did not mind payin the entrance fee
Good and easy place to load your boat off.
Absolutely Amazing Park.
Cleanest water around
