Beach Lot & Boat Launch

Our up to date (paid) members will be given the four-digit combination to access the beach lot on Lakeview Drive.  PLEASE NOTE - this is for up to date members only.  Do not share with anyone who is not a current member.  If you are current on dues and have not received the combination via mailer, please contact Kelly Wass at ILIAmembership@gmail.com to verify your membership status and receive the combination.

By and large, the biggest concern of our members is regulating access to the beach lot.  We ask that all members help to police the beach lot ourselves.  If you see someone violating the beach rules, leaving the gate open, launching a boat that they shouldn't, we ask that you speak up and put a stop to their behavior.
