Walker Bay Resort

 Walker Bay Resort goes back a long ways.   According to the maps, it was just north of Walker on 371.  It is a beautiful place on the lake.    

I have a couple of connections with Walker Bay Resort.  As a kid, we visited there because a friend of my dad KC Johnson operated his launch out of Walker Bay Resort and lived in a trailer house at the back of the resort property if my memory serves me correctly.  My Friend Roger Sasse used to stay at Walker Bay Resort until it closed.

Anderson's Cove bought some of the cabins from Walker Bay Resort in the mid to late 90's.  I'm not sure exactly when it closed, but it had to be in the mid 90's or near that time.

It is a beautiful picture and the grounds look fantastic.  I hope some of you out there will have some great stories to tell about your time at Walker Bay Resort.  I'll post any updates as I get them.
