• Recent E-mail from "Wayne": "I just learned today that we once again have access to the river through Becks Lake. I drove over right away and was struck by a sense of nostalgia for the years when we used to launch at the old facility. I am also very impressed by the potential that I see. I wish you well and will be a frequent customer. I hope your plans all come to full fruition."
• Comment from a young Navy couple: "We had a great time in one of your primitive camp-sites. We'll go back to NAS "Mainside" and tell our friends that there is now a campground with fishing & boating that's not so far away."
• Comment from Robert Parker, a local realtor: "I've known about this wonderful place all my life but it was not available to the public for over 30 years. This is a terrific addition to the recreational choices that the citizens of Escambia County have. It has the potential to be one of the best fresh-water "nature" parks in the Southeast!"
• Comment from a frequent kayaker: "It's gorgeous out there!"
  
• Comment from an Escambia River fisherman: "I'm glad this is back open. I've been running 14 miles up-river from "Swamphouse" to get here before!"
• Story from an Escambia River fisherman: "I'm glad Becks Lake Fish Camp's back open. I used to go to Quintet boat ramp. We were coming back to the landing one trip and I saw a truck pulling a trailer across the bridge that looked just like my trailer. It was mine! Quintet Ramp is a bad place."
• Story from nice lady in a SUV: "It is so quiet and beautiful" (after driving down to the "point"). "I'm going to come back with my husband and our kayaks!"
