What Our Customers Say

If you’re looking for an excellent place to drop in at Lake Lavon this is the place to go. They have tons of amenities to offer; boat ramp, boat docks/storage, small bait/boat store, picnic areas, swimming areas, and a cool floating restaurant just to name a few. The facilities aren’t brand new but they are nice and get the job done plus some. They do charge a little bit of money upon entering depending on what you’re there for, so check into that before heading out there without your wallet. Enjoy the lake!

Brian Ward

A quiet peaceful piece of Heaven on Earth. The fishing NEVER disappointed and we fished from the shore for 3 months while staying at the RV site and were never skunked. Loved the live music.
Stephanie is awesome and helpful.
Came here for a short work transfer but will return again because it’s a special spot now.
