Also, Parkview Bay on the Grand Glaize is only a mile away from Dog Days.

What is dog days?? Use small easy to understand words I am from northern Minnesota..... Haha

We might have found a place on horseshoe bend. I think it's about 12mm. I assume those are miles so it would be 7 miles from the ending?

Dog Days bar/resteraunt is where the end of the run party is and card turn in.

Dog Days is the bar/restaurant on the water at the 19MM which hosts the end of day festivities. You will get dinner there, and poker run winners will be announced. But mostly folks have a few drinks, walk the docks and BS with each other. Land's end is just across from Dog Days. Parkview Bay is just under the bridge and about 1/4 mile down from Dog Days. Both would be great places to stay. If you are going to boat home from Dog Days after dark there is a 30mph speed limit after sunset. And it is enforced, and it also is a reason to make you blow if they think you have been drinking. The other rule the water patrol is picky about is no sitting on the sun pad/engine hatch when the boat is running.

Point Randall is a good little resort..but anything over a 22 ft boat will not go down the ramp..

Docks are everything! Name the places. I'd pick the 21 over the 12 for this event everything equal. You will likely put in at Public Beach 2, (PB2) which is in the state park off the 19MM on the main channel. You can leave your trailer there until you take out.

Ledges is a good rental complex located at 21mm. Easy to get to on land and water. Nice docks in protected cove.

I have launched my 28 Donzi many times there. My good friends who stay there launch their 32 Fountain and 35 Baja with no problem. After launching the boat we do not circle around the buildings, we exit the way we came in.
