Mother Nature's Riverfront Retreat

About Us

The Tunnel Dam Garden Center has been in business since 1999. In 2012 we started Mother Nature’s Riverfront Retreat and Family Recreation Park, offering float trips, camping, camper rentals, cabin rentals, RV hookups, and a full-featured bunk house for large group/family reunions, retreats, weddings, etc.

Our air conditioned shower house is one of the nicest you’ll see here at the lake. We also have a C-Store that offers ice, bait, cold beverages, bug spray, sunglasses, sunscreen, hats, etc., and camping supplies for your convenience.

We have constructed an ornamental fish pond to display our beautiful flowers and to delight our customers, so they can sit and enjoy the beauty and serenity of the center. I am proud to announce that we have had several weddings on the bridge that crosses the pond. It would be a beautiful location to schedule yours today!

I have always loved entertaining family and friends. The first time I viewed the Tunnel Dam Garden Center I fell in love with the tranquility and absolute beauty of the place. I felt a great feeling of peace and healing. At one time, I believe this sacred place must have been a gathering spot for local Indians and settlers; you can just feel their presence and an inexplicable peace along the riverfront as you enjoy many views worthy of lingering.

I am looking forward to seeing you this year.
