The park staff were very kind and had everything prepped and cleaned for us in advance. I reserved the Ramada for a 30-person corporate retreat, these were very high maintenance people. Lawyers, doctors, etc. they were all not only shocked by the beauty of the area but by how well the picnic area was taken care of.

Overall we had an amazing experience renting the ramada. I do think for 50 people the limit of 10 cars was difficult and eventually part of our attendees were turned away from entering the park. There should be some way for us to buy extra spots or be able to caropool in so we can drop off/pickup our group in total.
The area was clean and fresh!

Beautiful wedding venue & great wedding day but 2 major issues. #1: parking for wedding ceremony and ramada rental was very confusing. We paid $120 for extra parking spots in general parking onsite but 2 guests were still turned away by front gate and the other offsite lots were full due to local events because cell reception did not allow them to call or text to us & front gate didnt notify us. Create a plan to shuttle guests or car pool is a must to avoid guests getting turned away. The front gate did not notify us that 2 guests needed a ride from offsite parking... wedding party would have picked them up. #2 issue: Ramada wedding site bathroom did not work it was out of commission. We had to use general park bathrooms a walk away even tho wedding bathroom is part of ramada & ceremony reservation we paid. Just be prepared with parking plan B and clear written list of guests for front gate to admit for wedding party is my suggestion. Physical passes or a list of guests would be a great idea for park but it was a bit of chaos day of.

Large covered ramada with picnic tables and grills. Restroom nearby was clean and reserved for our guests. Short walk to the water. Perfect!

The Ramada has a private parking lot which was great. At the gate, they gave out tickets for each of the 10 cars so they could keep track of how many were entering. We didn’t know we had to be out by 6, but they allowed us as a courtesy to be out at 7 when the park closes. That wasn’t clear as we thought we had it for 24 hours, but it still worked out great. The views were beautiful and the bathrooms were by the private parking lot.

We got married here! All rangers were so kind and helpful and made sure our guests knew where to go. We were also undisturbed the whole time during our ceremony and after so it felt so intimate! Couldn’t recommend this place more, it’s beautiful!

Absolutely love this place! We go here every year for my daughters birthday. She enjoys the outdoor experience and loves the water.
This place is definitely more busy now than when we first started visiting about 13 years ago. I can't blame anyone for wanting to visit this place as it has amazing views!
The place is always clean and the park Rangers are very sweet and helpful.
