LAUNCH RAMP OPEN - USE CAUTION ON RIVER

Due to heavy rains, river levels continue to rise and therefore more caution is necessary when planning your weekend at the Harbor. Rex Bush will keep us updated as any other unpredictable weather patterns unfold or if flooding conditions change.

While the data is predicting that our water levels will remain UNDER the seawall, we know it could be close. The marina team will continue to monitor the river level closely and will handle any flood-related clean-up for marina grounds, ramps, and docks.

As of now, our launch ramp will remain open and rental boats will continue as scheduled. However, we are restricting tube rentals (due to the faster current) and are asking boaters to please use extra caution - noting faster river stream conditions and more floating debris flowing.

Anyone else over this rain? ☔

We're looking back at these photos from last summer and daydreaming about sunshine, neighborhood fun, and all the things that make summer at Heritage Harbor special.

The neighborhood lemonade stand was one of our favorite memories for last summer, and we're excited to see it return at our Cars, Keys & River Breeze Car Show on July 18. Join us for a great day along the river filled with classic cars, community, and summertime fun.
