New Wahweap Marina Store/Office in the works!

wahweap front 3

ARAMARK is constructing the new Wahweap Marina store complex.  It will house the marina offices, gift shop and restaurant.  The plan is to have it in operation by next spring.  Construction was scheduled to begin by now and continue on through this coming winter. It will be built somewhere around the Stateline rental docks. After completion it will be floated into the site of the existing store.  There will be some disruption when the old buildings are moved out and the new ones floated into place.  They hope that will happen early next spring.  A mechanics building is to be located at the end of G dock. There will be power and water interruption for a short time during this process.  They plan to  give plenty of notice as the time draws nearer.   ARAMARK has released artist's renderings of the new facility.  More can be seen by clicking HERE.

Boaters are reminded that a mussel free certificate is required prior to launching any watercraft. "Mussel Free" certificates must be displayed on the dash of their vehicle.  With the exception of Hite, the only way to obtain this certificate is to have your vessel inspected by an authorized National Park Service inspector.  Hite and remote locations are the only places where self-certification is still allowed.  Please check the website at www.nps.gov/glca for the updates of lakewide ramp times and certification requirements.
