Guide
Approach and anchoring
The anchorage lies off Stave Island in the broad lake. The bottom is rocky, which gives uncertain holding, so set the anchor with care and check it has bitten. Shelter is from the east, south-west, south and south-east, with exposure to the north and west.
Practical
This is a free anchorage with no facilities. Plattsburgh Boat Basin lies 7.5 nautical miles to the north-west and Burlington Harbor Marina is 8.5 nautical miles to the south-east, both reachable for fuel, water and provisions.
