Boat Launching Ramps

The park features two boat ramps that are provided for the short-term use of park patrons. Ramps are for launching and retrieving only. Due to the popularity of the facility, boaters are asked to only utilize the ramps as long as it is necessary to complete their business. Vehicles and trailers should be moved as quickly as possible from the loading area of the boat ramp. To assist with the launching and landing process, day docks are available for loading and unloading passengers and gear. When preparing for a launch, please use the temporary staging area provided in the parking lot. This will enable you to expedite the launching of your vessel.

Docking

Docks are provided in multiple locations for the short-term use of park patrons. Due to the popularity of the park, boaters are asked to only utilize docks as long as it is necessary to complete their business. The docks located on the east-side of the park adjacent to the boat ramps are designated as a temporary loading and unloading zone. For everyone's convenience, the maximum time you are permitted to use these docks is 10 minutes. Two sets of docks are located on the north-side of the park. The northeast dock has been designated for the exclusive use of the park's Recreational Water Sports Rental Concession and Water Taxi service. The northwest dock is available for daytime use by park visitors. At sunset, boaters are asked to remove their vessels from this dock.

Non-motorized Vessel Launching

The park has designated a section of beach on the southwest corner of the park for launching and retrieving non-motorized vessels. This area is the only location authorized for this activity.

Due to site constraints, there are a limited amount of spaces available in the park including 127 boat/trailer parking spaces and 206 regular parking spaces. Boat/trailer parking spaces are reserved for the exclusive use of tow vehicles with boat trailers. Vehicles not towing a trailer are required to use the regular parking spaces. Trailers are not permitted to be parked in the regular parking spaces

After Hours Parking - Boat trailer and tow vehicle parking is permitted overnight (24 hour period only). Boaters requiring more extended stay periods must utilize alternate parking location.

Capacity - Once the facility reaches capacity, enforcement staff will temporarily close access to the park and direct prospective patrons to other locations. For safety reasons, vehicles will not be permitted to queue up at the park entrance to wait for the facility to reopen. When enough vehicles vacate the site, enforcement staff will reopen access. Note: when the parking area reaches capacity, the Concessionaire will continue to be permitted to run their shuttle service in/out of the park.

Playground

A playground facility designed for children ages 5-12 is located on the southwest corner of the park in close proximity to the swimming beach. This special facility includes swings and a climbing apparatus. For the children's safety, the site is enclosed by a fence and features a resilient surface to cushion falls. Adult supervision is recommended.

Family Picnic Shelters

Four family picnic shelters are available on the west side of the park. They are available for use on a first-come, first-served basis except when reserved by permit for special event purposes.

Single Table Picnic Area with Grills

Picnic tables and grills are located in a number of areas of the park and are available on a first-come, first-served basis.

Restroom Facilities

Restrooms are found on the east-side of the park in close proximity to the boat ramps and on the west-side near the family picnic shelters. Restrooms are available for boater use 24-hours a day.

Outdoor Showers

Pole showers are available on the south-side of the parking area in close proximity to the beach.

Concession Information

A Recreation Services Concession will soon be available in the park that will coordinate water taxi services to nearby Peanut Island, as well as providing visitors with numerous opportunities to participate in various water related sports.
