What about staying at the lake in winter? Are the roads plowed? Does it even snow there?
A:
I don’t often visit in winter, but I’ll try to answer as I live less than 2 hrs away. Yes we get snow, not a lot and not much. If we get snow or ice main roads would be cared for but secondary …
I don’t often visit in winter, but I’ll try to answer as I live less than 2 hrs away. Yes we get snow, not a lot and not much. If we get snow or ice main roads would be cared for but secondary roads and residential roads may not get much attention. Lake Santeetlah is beautiful in winter but there is not much going on.
Hey everyone. We have rented a house on Lake Santeetlah for a week this summer and I just learned it is in a dry county. Anyone know how far/where you have to go to buy alcohol if you are staying on the Lake? (We are staying in the actual town of Lake Santeetlah.) Thanks!
A:
We always travel to the town of Andrews its not that far takes us about 20 minutes to get there and you will love the town of Andrews.Hope you have fun at the lake we Lake Santeetlah.
Are dogs allowed on lake Santeetlah? We are thinking of taking our dog with our trip to mountains, but I am not sure if she will be more of the burden. We would like to swim on the lake with our baby , but if dogs are not allowed, then we would leave her at dog care. My dog loves hiking, but hates water, but we love to tag her along on the trips, because she is our family as well :) Please, let me know if dogs are allowed . Thank you
A:
Yes, we took our dog out this afternoon. Rented a pontoon boat, she had a blast.
Is this lake good for scuba diving?what is the visibility?
A:
I'm not sure but the visibility is great. I'm not sure people scuba dive there. You could probably ask the owner of the Santeetlah Marina. He could help you. Kathy
