This is the forth of a series of articles on Delta area Resorts and Hideaways some offer better fishing than others and some just a seclude get away in our own backyard.
Russo’s Marina on Bethel Island is popular camping and boat access location on the Nationally Famous Frank’s Tract. Yes, clean full hook-ups sites superior boat.
With the popularity of Russo’s growing and there hosting of so many big events out of Russo’s the past couple of years Resorts around the area have also been growing and benefiting from the areas popularity. I have always been impressed with Beacon Harbors helpful outgoing staff and the improvements. This is simply a great place to stay within walking distance of the festivities of events held next door. Here are some of the many amenities. Clean Showers and Restrooms, a huge change bonus compared to many Delta resorts that have not made the grade to be featured here. The Sites don’t have the Full Hook ups of other resorts but for the most part today’s Rv enthusiast can get along just fine on electricity and water.
This is also the home of the Aqua Lodge, an on the water cabin with all the amenities an angler can ask for. Recently a couple of participants in the 100 percentbass team TOC Byron Hallett and George Stamger had this to say about the Beacon Resort and Aqua Lodge. “We would like to thank harbormaster Kim Foreman on beautiful Frank’s Tract”. The with the pair spending four days of practice there they found the experience to be very enjoyable with covered berths. The also mentioned the convenient location next to Russo’s Marina, the host for the Delta’s biggest Bass tournaments. “We found the spacious and well maintained Aqua Lodge excellent. The Full size refrigerator, Microwave oven and great hospitality.
The Beacon Harbor resort is located on Bethel Island’s Piper Slough close to fast water access, great fishing for Black Bass, Stripers, Sturgeon, panfish and catfish. Bethel Island has planty of restaurants, stores within minutes.
