    The landing by the dam is call North End and yes folks were using it this past weekend. What I call the marina is on the Southside of the lake like your going back to town from the Dam. Sign there for the ramp, swimming beach and all that, two coves around from the dam if you count the coves at the emergency spillway.

    The only beach I remember from the early 70s was on the Hugh White side, which was across and more out on the main lake with a float-rope close to the deeper water.

    The first pic appears to me to be from Grenada Landing road looking North to the beach. That would have been the first rendition of the hotel - the structure furthest away and the closer building is the restaurant.

    Agree that the second pic is Hugh White or the launch over by what is now the cabins.

    A lot like the old Wannabe... except with fewer bad words. And Karate chop action. But, yes, still purtier than you.

    Middle pic shows the ski jump I was talking about. Can you imagine the lawsuits if that thang was still around? They also used to have boat races every weekend out there. Heard tales of 14' Hydrostreams with bored out 2 strokes pushing insane speeds out there.

    I went by the visitor's center a little while ago to see if they might have some of this kinda stuff down there and the girl had no clue what I was talking about. Showed her a pic on my phone and she said they had nothing that old that she knew of.
    Cool stuff!!!
