Use Point Vista Park Ramp in Hickory Creek. Rick my neighbor puts in his 38' Scarab with no problems, not too crowded either.

Wasn't sure if that was a public ramp or not, which is why I didn't mention it. :)

BTW, don't sell him short, its a 43' :lolhit:

You have to pay, but it's a public ramp and probably the best in the area. Always thought that was a big 38! lol

It looks like most of the Northern Texas lakes
 
are full at this point. Wish the same were true for Central/South Texas! Don't mean to threadjack but is anyone familiar with Lake Worth? I know it's on the smaller side but I have access to it through the military base. Was wondering if it would be a good place for the kids to swim/wakeboard. We have a 25' Rage, probably not a lot of WOT on this lake.

No offense but I would not waste your time on Lake Worth. Small lake some spots narrow and stumps in areas. It is full so that makes even seeing the stump areas harder. Your Nordic will be the nicest boat on the lake I can tell you that.

Even though the lake is close to me and my biz I been on it one time in 30 years with a jet ski and it was boring. You can go up and down the whole lake in 30 mins. The only thing thats come to mind to describe the lake is its reminds me it should have a trailer park around it.

Go to Eagle Mountain Lake instead or Lake Lewisville or Lake Grapevine is OK. I perfer PK or Texoma over any DFW lakes hands down. Alot Lakes in DFW our too small especially for your bigger boats plus have a ton of traffic on the boating weekends. DFW is not the sportboat area like it use to be - alot of wakeboard boats, Sea Rays & Crownlines here. Not saying anything wrong with that but if your into the performance boat areas then Texoma or PK or when Lake Travis has water is the places. JMO if that counts.

Thanks for the input...
 
One of the reasons I'm seriously considering this it that there is a Navy Lodge, pretty inexpensive lodging for our family of seven, right on the water. Our kids love skiing, tubing, and wake boarding and we often end up hanging out in the same area of the lake doing figure eights while they ski and tube. I definitely don't want to ding the prop I just paid $400 to have repaired!

Lodging expense is ALWAYS a big deal for us when we go away from our home lakes which are currently very low.

Canyon Lake, TX
 
@XX14 - Have you tried using the Joint Base facilities at Canyon Lake? They have lodging. Bad part right now the lake is down almost 10 ft., so the Armed Forces boat ramps are unusable. However you would have access to other ramps that are free of charge.

I have...
 
they're a great value. We've stayed in the trailers there before and the price is definitely right. Only downside is you have to clean it before you leave.
