Eric Peterson reported that Lake of the Falls Campground opened April 30, and Weber Lake, Schomberg and Saxon Harbor campgrounds opened May 7 for the season. He said Saxon Harbor docks were installed May 12 and that five slips are available for 2026; shallow channel depth limits additional sailboat slips.
