My parents slipped their Four Winns cuddy cabin there for several years. But this was about ten years ago, so I'l stick to stuff that should still be true.

They loved the ownership and staff, they were always treated with respect and friendship. The place was always clean and neat. There is a nice little beach right there. They loved their boat, a 22 footer, and never found it too small for the lake. They slept on it and in that way it was too small.

On the other side, it is a little remote, especially by car. By boat you better get a Bizer map and learn how to read the markers before you venture out between the islands

There is a huge shallow sandbar out in front of the marina. So there was always a debate on how to get over it. We would either idle out with the drive trimmed up or try to get over it on plane.

If there is any wind at all there will be chop in Melvin bay. This didn't limit the times they went out but it can be irritating.
