What did you want to know?

I was wondering how to tell if the water is too high when going to the Cove and which side of the bridge to go under. The side with an “X” didn’t feel intuitive, but I guess that’s the way! Are there any height issues when going to Tim’s and the “boardwalk” area?

We put in on Fridays, usually from Sturgeon Creek Marina. Will be there this week. We usually hangout near either of the two volley ball courts, but am open to any part of the lake that may be better for water sports. Much of the time we do water sports at the end of the cove just past Anna Point Marina.

You'll have zero issues with any of the bridges. Been there for last 7 years all different parts of summer, never even close to being a thought.

Pay attention to the depth if you run down past the power plant, some good hangout spots, but also a few random shallow areas and rocks, even a very small island.

Its a great lake. You're gonna have a great time!

Cool....where do you put in? I will keep an eye out for your boat. We are near Hunters Landing.....we do water sports on this side of No Wake zone but venture out to a cove to chill or the sand bar. Nice boat!!

Where on the lake is Hunter's Landing?

I put in at Christopher Run or High Point Marina unless I can find a friend who is around and I can put in at their community. I usually camp out at the Sand Bar most of the day when I am on the water and will usually do a sunset cruise when the day is over. Here is a picture of my old boat at the sand bar....

We used to camp and put our jet ski in at Christopher Run I've heard mixed things about putting in there with a boat. Any issues?

Yea that bridge is an optical illusion ...but better off safe than sorry. Still watch water line on pillars....if you don't see water line really be careful.

Where did you put in, dukes creek? The best sand bar is past tim's. Turn at state park kinda past water way to Christopher run past tim's restaurant and under bridge and then about a mile. They put the volley ball net up on Sat if you were at this location.

Glad you had a great time!

That's where we usually hangout.

Where on the lake is Hunter's Landing?

North West-ish - just over/at Belmont Rd bridge.
Map address 6320 Belmont Rd, Mineral, VA 23117

We have dropped in at Sturgeon Creek and Hunters Landing (kids and Admiral prefer Sturgeon and that area) - The Hunter launch is a tight 2-lane, and way more challenging and longer wait times than Sturgeon Creek ( easy 6+ launches). Hunters lot does fill up and I’m not sure if there is viable overflow.

… NW is different area and crowds than the “main” areas to the south/east by marinas and power plant - it’s a bit more chill residential part of the lake as recommended and experienced. Didn’t find beach areas, but anchored up in some wooded fishing spots, then just in people’s backyard water (weird us). We found some nice water for sport up the wider fork to the NW (just before a bridge of Days Bridge Rd). But it’s tighter area and can be busy with boats and water sports.
