Camp Far West Lake. 2021

RESERVATIONS: We will start reservations on April 1st at 6:30am at the North shore store, for the months of April through September. We will be using the same lottery system that we have used in the past years. See photo. If there is a site that you really like or you want a reservation for one of the three day weekends, we suggest you show up at 6:30. We wait on everyone that shows up for the lottery first, then we begin answering the phone. After April 1st, reservation...s will be taken on MONDAYS and TUESDAYS only, from 8:00am to 2:00pm. Our phone is very busy on these two days so if you cannot get through, keep trying or show up in person on one of these two days between 8:00am and 2:00pm. Since Easter is on April 4th, we will take reservations for that weekend only, starting on March 22nd. All other reservations for weekdays and weekends will start April 1st. See more

Here are some pictures from New Years

Just a quick thank you to everyone that came out to the Lake to celebrate the New Year. Happy New Year 2021 to the hot boaters, their families and friends on South shore; and to the jet ski racers on the North Shore, their families and friends.

Here it is in black and white! The water district was given the restrictions/orders by the Governor, who in turn gave them to us. In order for us to allow any camping, we have to follow the restrictions/orders. If we don’t follow them, we could be shut down completely. These restrictions were not put in place by us-the lake. So have some patience, follow the rules and hopefully we can get back to what we know as normal soon. If you can’t/won’t follow the rules then you may not want to make a reservation or you may be escorted out.

Rain is amazing. I say let’s do New Years!

Camping becomes available on June 12th by reservation only. If you don’t have a reservation you will not be allowed to camp overnight. Sites 1-24 on the paved loop plus 10 sites in the dirt loop are the only ones available. There will be 20 reservations for Jet Ski Cove also. Only one vehicle per site with up to six people at the site and all from the same household. Social distancing must be followed.

Camping??? As of today, we are open for day use only. Camping is not allowed at this time. We are hoping that those of you who like to camp will be able to do so starting sometime in June. This is not our decision, the water district is under the state orders/restrictions, not the county. I will keep you updated as soon as I hear more, so stay tuned!Camping???

Attn: Bass Anglers We are having to cancel the upcoming tournament that is scheduled for May 16th. We have had a large amount of visitors with boats the last three weekends due to other lakes being closed, and feel it is best to cancel at this time. If you prepaid, refunds will be given today. If a weekday tournament would work for you guys (Wednesday or a Thursday) please send me an email at: [email protected]

It is with regret, we had to tell the Easter Bunny to stay home this weekend. The Easter Bunny is doing her part to support social distancing and the Stay at Home order. There will not be any Easter activity at the lake this coming weekend. Sorry. The Easter Bunny wants everyone to stay safe and healthy, and HAPPY EASTER TO YOU ALL! Hippity Hop.....

Attention Bass Anglers We have to postpone the Bass Tournament from April 18th to May 16th. This is due to the 6’ social distancing rule. Hopefully the CoVid 19 situation is much better by then. New Bass Tournament date is May 16th. Stay safe and healthy!Attention Bass Anglers We have to postpone the Bass Tournament from April 18th to May 16th. This is due to the 6’ social distancing rule.

This emergency meeting has been postponed to next week. Speak up about recreation fishing!

I have some great news! The lake is OPEN for Day Use only. NO camping will be allowed at this time. We ask that everyone keep using the 6’ social distance rule. We want everyone to enjoy the lake and please keep yourself and others safe.I have some great news! The lake is OPEN for Day Use only. NO camping will be allowed at this time.
