Does anyone know if there are areas on the lake for public swimming. I cannot seem to find any info on the net besides boat rentals. Thank You

And boat rentals would not help. Often you are not allowed to jump overboard. What good is that? Those posts covered the swimming spots. They all require some sort of payment to get in. A car fee from 5-8 dollars usually.
