Party barges and water toys are available for rent so you can have plenty of fun on the lake. There are cabins and a motel for those wanting those traditional accommodations. The seasonal restaurant offers a full menu and is open Memorial Day through Labor Day.

The restaurant is a great option for on the lake dining. There is a huge patio area that overlooks the marina and the lake.  You can enjoy great burgers, sandwiches, and more.

This is absolutely one of the best marinas on the lake.  It is attached to our favorite camping area on the lake as well.  There are plenty of RV sites and campsites for use with beautiful views of the lake in the Crystal Springs campground.  The beaches in this area are some of the best on the lake.
