Elk Rock Courtesy Dock Update
Red Rock Lake is Iowa’s largest lake with lots of opportunities for boaters of all stripes. Look for paddlers on everyfull moon to be paddling the lake, look below the dam if the lake is frozen. On breezy days enjoy watching the many sailboats travel the lake. Mornings and evening when the water is calm watch as a water skier comes into view and shows off her talents. Whatever your passion in boating you can do it at Red Rock Lake!
Think Water Safety During Summer Fun!
Boaters: When cruising on the lake, remember to be courteous and cautious around other boaters, swimmers and others on the water. A reckless boater or careless skier can turn a nice outing into a disaster! So keep a safe distance from others, follow Iowa’s boating regulations, don’t drink alcohol while boating, and always wear your life jacket! Have a great summer!
