Great place to get out of the city and enjoy some good food and beautiful scenery that God created for us

Wheelchair accessible marina staffed with very helpful staff. We rented one of their pontoon boats, and cruised the heaven on earth surroundings!

The Marina is at the end of the Bartlett Dam Road- make a right. There is a gravel lot at the start, and then you will see the main parking concrete lot for cars- located next to the Cove Restaurant/General Store. From there, you can walk about to the start of the marina in under 5 minutes; or, there is another smaller lot closer to the marina but may fill up faster.
You can go down to the dock of the marina either by going down some stairs (no handrails) or down an accessible winding ramp. From there, it's a short less than a minute stretch of dock (with railing on one side only which made it kind of sketchy walking on the other side). You can see views of the lake and the boats. There's stand-up paddle boards rentals, and another eatery called The Oar here. Front part of the dock was members only, and I didn't see any restrooms here either as the ones on top of the stairs were members only.

Our group went on double deck boat ride with slide, tubing that seats 3 and outrigger skiing. The Oar House Restaurant had very good burritos and the Arizona Adaptive Sports Staff was awesome. Thank you ALS Arizona Chapter. 1st Lake to be all solar powered.

When we went to the lake and it was very low. Lots of people on the lake, friendly people and and great service. My son and I rented some standup paddle boards, it was my sons first time and went across the lake. Windy in the evening but beautiful views. The other boaters seem to be ok with us on the paddle boards. Didn’t feel that dangerous. Good experience. The gentleman renting the boards was very nice and knowledgeable, was a pro at one time and has great stories. Good pointers and advice. Bring some shade because it was very exposed everywhere.

A hidden gem, perfect to enjoy on a weekday when it's super quiet. A bit of a drive but well worth it. Staff is always helpful and friendly. Look at all the beautiful nature we saw, a bonus!
Love it here!

Nice day and night at the lake. Water temperature is perfect. Cat fishing not so good. Blue gill fishing out of control fun but way too small to eat. I don't like blue gill anyways. I used them for bait.

What a beautiful desert lake. The scenery is beautiful and amazing. Went on a Thursday and it was not busy at all, we were the only ones in our cove. The marina is clean and well managed. There is a small Cafe and shop at the marina.

Rented a pontoon boat for a lake day with the family and had a fantastic time! All staff in the store and in the docks were very friendly and made everything very simple and easy..Also, thank you for having wheel carts to help carry things from the parking lots onto the docks !

I love this lake! I've always rented from Chad at SUP there at the marina and he's awesome! Very nice, knowledgeable and great rentals. I've recommended him to my neighbors (who also had a great rental experience) and my friends. Prices are very reasonable! Thank you Chad!!
