Conley is a really nice place, with the greatest people on the lake willing to do anything they can to help you out. The only complaint I have and it's not really a complaint I just wish all the piers were connected so they'd all have easy access to the store and restrooms. But then we'd probably end up with scooters and cruzin coolers motoring all over the place, one thing I do no like about State Dock. Come on over guys I'm always looking for a good party.

Marina/Ramp: Currently mostly out of Jamestown but spend a lot of time at the other Marinas.

Pre2012-Conley Bottom Mostly, Waitsboro, Alligator I&II ramps, Leesford, Pulaski County Park (when it has water), Grider, State Dock (via boat), and Jamestown are a few places you might find me.

Conley is one of my favorites and more and more becomes my home base when I come to the lake. From there you can go to Leesford for a meal, go up to Burnside and have Papa Johns meet you at the waitsboro courtesy dock for Pizza, have Pizza hut delivered to your boat on the dock at Conley.

You can go east one day and enjoy the beautiful Southfork or the Main River Channel and then come back and the next day go West and be about 4 turns from Harmon creek if you want...


But ummm anyone reading this should know to stay away because the water is actually acid there and it will eat you alive... Yep.. Thats it you ummm can't get in the water anywhere around there because of Sharks and stuff... :^o

Wonder how Jamestown will do this year with Cave Springs big discount? Most of Jamestowns Boaters are from out of state.The ride is really not so bad if your not pulling a boat.

I could see people coming from the North East being more likely to go to Cave Springs because the drive would not be much different for those coming down I75 and across 80, but those coming from Indiana and Louisville might not want to make that upside down U.

Mirage said that Cave Springs has been doing alot of improvements.Jamestown and State Dock better watch out with the big discount.If Cave Springs has Cable,Internet and repaired the dock they will fill up fast since everyone is watching pennys.

I often wonder why Jamestown is overlooked,one thing I'd like to see addressed there is the water taxi hours. Since my boat is back by the ramp, I can see it from the ramp but the only way to get to it other than water taxi is to walk down the steps by the hotel/shipstore which can be a pain.. but the water taxi drivers have been great at stopping by the slip before they go home to tell us they are leaving for the night. I'm just ready to get back on the water, this cold weather has lasted way too long!

Most or should I say all Marinas promise something that never happens. Im going to find the one that fits all my needs and not just some. This might not even be on Cumberland.
