You guys rule!
I will be there tomorrow
Good news-- The fuel dock will re-open tomorrow, and will be open Friday, Saturday, and Sunday from 10a - 6p! Gas will be priced at $4.20/gal and Diesel at $5.15/gal. We have also updated the inside of the fuel dock with more merch for this season, and to kick off Memorial Day weekend, we'll be taking 15% off of any merchandise purchase over $15! ...

Boating Safety Week starts Saturday, May 20th-- The Coast Guard Auxiliary will be holding free Vessel Inspections from 10a-3p on Saturday for anyone who'd like to make sure their boat is safe as can be! They will be stationed at the north end of Lake Potter (down by the boat launch ramps), but anyone can make an appointment and have them meet at their slip as well. To do so, get in contact with John Ferris @ (815)-275-0762, or e-mail at JAFerris@frontiernet.net. ... See MoreSee Less

Here's what we're looking at today:
-Power and water has been returned to all docks *except* for the 100 docks. Large pieces of debris washed up against the 100 gangway during the flood and severely damaged it. Until we have this fixed, the power will have to remain shut off. If you have a boat docked on 100 and you need assistance with getting to it or need to get some power, let us know and we'll see what we can do.
-The fuel dock is still closed until further notice. We cannot perform any services there until the power has been returned to it and all systems are inspected for flood damage. We will let you know ASAP once it's back open.
-We have removed the temporary gangways from 300 and 500 docks, and will remove the one from 600 as soon as the water backs off some more.
-The road to 100 dock is starting to clear up, but we are in the process of cleaning it up (and you can't use the gangway to get to the docks anyhow) so we ask that you please refrain from taking your vehicles that way for now.
-The river is sitting at 15.8' currently (minor flood stage), and we can see our liftwell again-- if you are needing a launch, get in contact with us and we'll set you up on the schedule! ... See MoreSee Less

Nathan Cheryl Hall get that boat in the water
The flood water has receded enough that we have reset the temporary gangway extensions to 300 and 500 docks. *Most* boaters now have access to their boats from the parking lot again! Be warned though: there is a lot of debris and mud everywhere and there is still water present in the lower lot, so please be careful if you wander into the marina at this time. We are discontinuing scheduled shuttle service from here out, but let us know if you still need a hand accessing your boat during regular business hours. More services will return soon-- we are expecting the power to return to most of the docks within the next day or two, and we will get the water to the docks going again once the water is low enough to find the leaks in the pipes. We ask for your patience and understanding while we get things back to normal! ... See MoreSee Less

That's what we want to see! The water is already starting to move back down. We're hoping that at ~18-19', we'll be able to re-open the main road into the marina, at which point we will discontinue shuttle service. Updates to follow as the situation changes! ... See MoreSee Less
