Boater Reviews
Plenty of room to put the jetskis in and park the Jeep. We visited on the fourth of july and dropped in about ten o'clock. It was lovely that they had a porta. Potty, right at the dock, but the downside of that is, it was horribly messy and covered in feces. Such a shame that people don't take care of the amenities were provided.
