Ya I grew up going to willow. My parents always had a place there and my grandparents retired there. My parents sold when they divorced and my grandma sold and moved to bullhead when my grandpa passed.. Im looking to buy in willow in the next year or so, maybe sooner than later. a good freind of ours has had his place on oriole on the market for 4 years now and threw me an offer I really can't pass up I just need to get the funds in order..

I think i got the bugs worked out but id rather be safe than sorry havent had any mechanical failure this year yet but theres always the chance

If you have a 4x4 you can launch for free off the baches in willow valley. that or ive never been harrased launching from the avi

I think it was at the Riverside where I dropped my trailer off the end of the ramp . . .
which happened to be about 2 1/2 feet above the river bed. It took 2 4x4's to pull me and the empty trailer out. Asshats should put some signage up.

The public beaches at Willow Valley are Indian land, and they require a permit to be on their land. It runs $10.00 per person. If you do not have one they ask you to get one or leave. If you piss them off they can legally take your stuff and keep it.
You can launch at the Willow Valley Marina if you are a member, and if not, they charge $25.00 a vessel.
-

The office on Dike Road is closed on weekends and holidays, but you still need a permit. If you don't get one before they close, you need to go to the Tribal police station. It is behind what used to be BJ's restaurant. They will give you a permit on Holidays and weekends. If you go their check out the jail. It is the small brick building with the fence and barbed wire in front of the office.

Ya I've been there for permits and that jail is scarry looking. We stressed about the permits year before last and the first couple of trips last year but it got old going all the way into town to get it if no one came to check on it.. I bought a season pass year before last but last year they told me they weren't available..
