Looking to swim and hang out at the beach? There are 3 locations ranging from 15-30 minutes drive from the property "Boot Lake Beach", Wheeler Lake Beach" and " Bass Lake Beach"- Update my favorite is Bass Lake Beach only 10 minutes away and the larger of the beaches. Nice and clean, picnic area and bathrooms. There is a $5 charge for your car so bring cash
