One of the highlights of Turtle Bay Island is "The Shell," a hidden gem where you can relax and soak up the island's beauty. "The Shell" features a couch, club chairs, a smartTV, and a fire pit with Adirondack chairs, perfect for enjoying breathtaking sunrises
and sunsets or simply taking a summer breeze nap.


For those seeking adventure, the island offers a variety of activities to suit every taste. Embark on an exhilarating kayak tour around the lake and explore its three different bays. If you have a boat, there is a public boat ramp on the lake that allows you
to anchor in the back bay, swim all day, and cruise along the shore to witness stunning sunsets.


After a day on the lake, you can grill your favorite meals on the gas grill. Adjacent to "The Shell," you'll find a pergola with a table for 10, ideal for enjoying family or friends dinners. If you prefer to dine out there are local restaurants and breweries
