Stayed after the lock - wonderful dockage and great swimming in natural pool of rocks nearby

We stayed here on a Saturday in mid-July. The day was warm, the skies were clear, and the locals were out in great numbers enjoying it all. We were the first of 3 Loopers locking through around 1:30pm. The bottom wall was full as was the upper wall but we were able to talk to some of the boaters on the upper gray wall and they were really polite and rearranged their boats so we could tie in. One boat with us pushed on to Buckhorn hoping to find space. The other boat with us dropped anchor about a quarter mile away and waited for the lock to close at 6:30pm, then he tied to the blue line. This is a pretty setting but VERY popular on weekends, we were lucky to have been able to stay. As usual, the Parks Canada staff was great. Houseboats are a moving hazard and we were barely able to push one off to keep it from hitting us. The bow rider tied in front of us was not as lucky. Only one shared bathroom was available for all the boaters and overnight tent campers when we were there. Nonetheless, a quiet, peaceful night's rest. 4 stars.

Busy spot arrive early if you want to stay over. No road access, and you must take all garbage with you. Good nature walk across the dam. Above lock can be a little breezy and choppy.
