In early 2016, our Marina journey began! Skip & Lori Cansler and Ginger (Cansler) Taunton were approved as concessionaires on Council Grove Reservoir by the US Army Corps of Engineers, Tulsa District. The marina business has 2 locations, both located just west of the dam.
Main office is located at 1025 Lake Road (across from Santa Fe recreation area). This is where we provide boat service and repair, storage, bait and tackle, gifts and snacks, and propane refilling station.
Parrot Patio and store are located on the water in Marina Cove. This is where we check-in/out boat rentals, provide fuel. Weekends through the summer months, kids can feed the fish and get a freezer pop — both are free! We feature a small menu including breakfast items, biscuits and gravy, pizza, hot dogs, cold drinks and frozen margaritas. Events happen on the Patio throughout the summer months.
We, along with the support of our marina crew of family and friends are here to help you enjoy the camping, swimming, boating, hiking, fishing and relaxation the lake has to offer.
