Boone Lake Association

The best cure for a hot-hot summer is simple – jump in the beautiful water of Boone Lake! No better way to cool off the kids – including the big kids. The water is the prettiest color ever – the same beautiful green tint as that of the Atlantic Ocean. Take a trip to the beach at Boone Dam and you’ll think you are at Myrtle Beach. Or take a boat ride on Boone and let the breeze put a smile on your face that just won’t stop.

After a day of fun and sun, all the Boone Lake marinas welcome you with great food and live music and the best view anywhere.

Sonny’s Run-About Café

Whether it is Sonny’s Run-About Café, Lakeview’s Marker 2 Grill, or Boone Lake Marinas (old Sportsman Dock) great facility, there is live music virtually every night of the week and definitely non-stop on weekends. Nothing like sitting by the “dock of the bay” enjoying your favorite beverage.

Still want more? What about breakfast served up at Jays Dock (plus country-style lunches every week-day) and Davis Marina daily. Also Rockingham has a great deli dubbed “Cranberries” with offerings that hit the spot.

But you say you don’t own a boat? No problem! Right on the water’s edge, at virtually every marina, is boat sales & rentals, jet-ski sales and rental and anything else you might need. Just want to take the kids swimming and cool off everybody? Look no further than the fabulous “beach” at the Boone Dam Park or scenic Winged Deer Park on the Watuaga leg of the lake with grassy knolls, volleyball court, and lots of space for playing with the dog or throwing a Frisbee –right on the shoreline.

Still not satisfied………just want to go “bait a hook”? Than the boardwalks at Bluff City that seem to stretch forever awaits you. Winged Deer park offers a similar boardwalk……….”under the boardwalk indeed”!!!!

You name it, we’ve got it. No wonder Boone Lake is the most widely used of all TVA Lakes. Fun on Boone is the best anywhere!
