You'll love it here. There's never a dull moment.

The Toad is very nice. Love Lazy days close to party cove and kind of the center of the lake. Have fun we will be down for Memorial day and the 4th of july.

If you go out at night be careful. Toads is an area the water patrol hang out after dark since there will be lots of folks hanging out drinking there.

Mentalpause, thanks for the heads up about the water patrol. With where we are staying, there should be plenty to do at night without having to be on the water and then I can just stumble back to my room.

The Toad and Shady Gators are just around the corner from us....we've never stayed their but the new condo's and swim up pool are pretty cool.... It can be a money pit at times but it is what you want it to be...you can have fun just about anywhere down at LOTO.....Shady Gators is only a little walk away and then you have Dog Day's, Frankie and Louies, Docknockers, Backwater Jack's & Jolly Rogers right in the area to have a good time....

Mentalpause is correct the WP like to lurk just outside the breakers at night looking for anything that they can stop you for but so does all of the other popular places after dark....If you take care of business and don't get crazy around the places they usually don't bother people too much....that is unless your in a flashy boat....then you will get stopped just to check things out...have fun and enjoy the lake...

Always stop in several times during the summer. Never spoken to anyone that has stayed there, but it looks top notch. A lot of other places in the general area to explore.

The Toad is nice, but for a better atmosphere, take the walk over to Shady Gators come drinkytime! We usually stay at the AquaFin, right across the street from the Toad complex, so we frequent both places when the boats are tied up for the evening.

Yeah I'd go to the Horny Toad if I didn't have anything better to do. But like others here have said, there are alot of better places to go at the Lake. The WP love to watch the place for a reason

I have stayed at toad its a great place! I also partied at Gators and two boats in are group got pulled over right outside of the break water late in the evening and they where both drinking not falling over drunk but proubly over the legal limit. The water patrol was very forgiving and let both drive 1 mile back to house we had rented. If they where looking just to give tickets they would have been in trouble, but they where looking out for safty.

You are by far the exception to the rule! The LOTO WP isn't known for leniency when it comes to alcohol related matters. 229 citations last year, 276 and 316 in the prior years.

The BAL also was lowered to .08 last year.

I've never know the MSWP to be lenient when it comes to boating and drinking.
