Was charged for not only the time we had the boat but the fuel cost to get the boat back to the marina. Was promised a comp for the time lost on our vacation but that didn't happen because "it would come out of the employees paycheck". These owners are the worst kind of small business folk. They blame customers for their short comings and really could give a shit less about safety. I'm sure Karen will have some retort about how our experience was due to our entitlement but I look at it simply as a lack of ethical business practice.

The jam for the toast was really good too. I also got OJ which was good. The potatoes were ok didn't finish those. I didn't get the salad not a breakfast item for me, but looked like romaine on someone else's plate or something like that. I got the coffee yesterday. It was good but not quite my taste. Breakfast with OJ was $19, not bad for the location, no meat. Nice gathering room, most were playing BORED games the first morning, not sure if I inspired folks to eat something.

There's a fancy (expensive) restaurant on the inside. We then proceeded down to the boathouse for the casual restaurant, hitting it mid-afternoon so it wasn't too busy. It's fun inside and has a good sized menu. We got fish sandwiches plus fries (expensive - I think it was $22 for the sandwich and $7 for fries), and our little one got a grilled cheese and a freshly squeezed lemonade. We sat out at a table on the dock. The fish sandwiches, apart from being really big, weren't that good. They fry them with the skins on - why? And they really didn't have much flavor. Fries were...fries. Grilled cheese also wasn't anything to write home about. Lemonade was really good. So all in all, I enjoyed the experience but I don't think I'll ever feel the need to return.

Restrooms had fantastic amenities including hair ties and mints (or maybe this was something the bride included?). The interior had modern lighting and tall ceilings with floor to ceiling windows. During sunset time, the view was breathtaking. Parking is close to the venue and the cabins are also close by. The food was served family style with baby kale salad, fingerling potatoes, mac and cheese, broccolini, salmon, chicken and steak. Shout out to the awesome bartenders who worked the wedding. Great friendly service with a smile. Looks like this spot has mixed reviews but as a guest this spot was top notch.

Check-in and check-out were easy, the employee I spoke with on the phone (a few weeks ahead of time when I had a question) was friendly and helpful, and the cabin was clean and quiet. For one person I would say the cabins are a perfect fit. They have a tiny home feel to them which might feel a little close for two people unless those two people really like each other. There's a well-maintained lawn and gazebo as well as chairs on the cabin deck which help things feel more spacious. I had a quiet night of solid sleep and woke up to a stunning sunrise. Being able to park right beside the cabin added to the feeling of safety. My one and only reason for four rather than five stars is the "no dogs on the bed or chairs" policy which I didn't see stated anywhere on their site while booking. The dog fee itself is extremely reasonable and I am grateful that they even allowed dogs to begin with but it was a rule that would have been nice to know ahead of time. Overall, I would definitely recommend CRRC to anyone visiting the Terrebonne area!

The fish, so small, so I threw most back, but Alleluia, the crawfish were such a delight. Just like baby lobster. I boiled them in a brine and dipped them in a melted garlic butter! Mmmm mmmm mmmm! Presently, living in the area, I look forward to many more days on the lake, fishing, swimming, and enjoying the summer days close to Heaven. All sights on the lake, immaculate and the pristine views of the Indigenous Peoples (American Indian) always so picturesque. As if it still the land of old, 1800 possibly before. As an advocate of keeping America clean, let us work hard to ensure the lake remains clean, properly maintained so many generations to come will enjoy the beauty of Lake Billy Chinook, Culver, Oregon.

We visited Lake Billy Chinook on a 90 degree day in July. The water was still cold! We rented a…read morepontoon boat down the road for the day and it was so easy cause they tow it to the lake and bring it back. You just have to know how to drive it. There is a lot of space on the lake, with many floating porta potties scattered on the lake if you don't want to drive up to the docks. I would say after 4th of July they were trashed! We fished and got to explore a beach while on the water. We saw people being pulled on boats, jet skies, and people jumping from the bridge. There are also places for camping but I cannot imagine being out there in the heat with no AC. The parking lot was full by the time we got back and we ended up needing to pay for it. There is a little beach next to the parking lot for those who don't have a boat to go out on but still want to enjoy the lake. I get seasick so I understand how that can be the better option. I was ok for the most part, just when another boat went by the boat would get rocky.

It's a beautiful drive in and gorgeous setting. The lakes are awesome, and clearly a lot of fun as the place was pretty packed last weekend. Lots of room to boat, paddle, hike, camp, and picnic. As we were just passing through we really only covered the park and surrounding areas via van, but we did stop in some shade to enjoy a picnic lunch. You definitely need to plan ahead and come prepared, as we didn't see any stores or gas in the immediate area. But it does look like a very serene place to spend a few days....especially if you like sun, as there wasn't a big supply of shade to be found. Lots of soaring birds and spectacular mountain views abound from the cliffs above the lakes. Beautiful high dessert oasis. :)
