Check-in is at the marina office down by the boat ramp. At the time of our visit, the office was closed Tuesday and Wednesday. Date of visit: Dec 2011. |

We chose one of the 5 less-expensive sites that have only water and electric hookups. Site 5 is beside the road down to the boat ramp and offers a good view of the lake as well as the Union Pacific RR mainline. Lots of trains, but far enough away that their noise is minimal. |
 |
The lower area has the 5 W/E-only sites. |
 |
Sites 6-20 are aligned in a straight row, fairly close together and surrounded by gravel. The pads themselves are paved. These sites offer FHU's. |
 |
The bathhouse is pretty spartan, but offers nice hot showers. It was not exactly hot inside and the showers hadn't had a good scrubbing in quite a while. The sinks and toilets are accessible to all, but the showers are behind a cypher-locked door. |
 |
These are the four rental cabins. |
 |
There's a large pavilion and a play area for the kids. |
 |
The boat ramp is open to the public as well as military folks. |
 |
A small full-service marina is located in front of the office beside the boat ramp. |
 |
For the railfans, there is a lot of activity on the nearby tracks. Every other day Amtrak's Sunset Limited passes by, eastbound in the evening and westbound in the morning. |
 |
And there are lots of freight trains, mostly container trains. Most have a couple of locomotives on the front and a pusher on the back, but this one had six locomotives up front. |
