Nice trip I'd advise anyone to GO FOR IT! We found a deal 4 nites 5 days = $120 x 7 plus $20 a peice for the fuel! Not bad at all

Took an hour to stack all that firewood,Then the damn drunks went and lit the thing at 5 in the afternoon! :irked:

Nice. I've always thought about doing that, but never actually looked into the price. Looks like a good time, except for burning some guy alive!

yeah, i was wondering the same thing - what did he do to get burned at the stake? was he a witch?

seriously though, was it me or did the water level look way, way down?
 
NICE!!! :cheers:




I Always wanted to take one of those trips, i didnt know it was that resonably prcied......so who whats to take a trip???
 
With the repairs going on to the earthen part of the dam the water is being kept at very low levels.And at the end of summer its at its lowest piont anyway.
I prefer to go in early summer when the water is high(I've seen it right to the tree line),But at that time there is a lot of floating Debri i.e. Firewood come fall!

The repairs will be ongoing for a few more yrs.So the houseboat company's will be offering specials during that time.

I did evenually found the party cove on friday but dogschool did't make down to saturday! and I was on my way home by then!

Meat week?

It looks like a mini sausage festival...where are the women?:sleep:

All kidding aside, if the weather permits we may try to get one
more weekend on Lake Cumberland in at the end of October and
the women will probably choose to stay home, when sunbathing
isn't an option and the water too cold for a swim they are not as
cooperative, which sucks because after a hard day of boating and
drinking I like to sling my leg over my ol' lady and use up the last
bit of my energy for the evening, there aint nothin' like some good
cuddy cabin lovin'!!:D

Hey Merc, next season we need to make a Checkmate weekend on
Cumberland happen, I know our crew of 'mates are in (we are there
at least 5 weekends per season) and I suspect yellowfiero88 will
join us and lcboater is always there and if you and a couple of the Erie
'mates come down we could get up to 10 of us there on same weekend
and that'd be cool! Don't be shy Ohio/Michigan mate's, all are welcome!
