Captain Jeff is a very entertaining host, and two hours is an appropriate time to tour the lake and learn about NLRA’s mission.

Jeff did a great job showing us the lake and answering all of our questions! He was also very easy going with our two little ones. Thank you for a lovely morning!

The tour guide was great, friendly, very informative. On the tour we saw Loons, an eagle and their nest and turtles sun bathing. Beautiful day with good friends.
