I’m trying to figure out (a) is spanish flat open for boat launch and (b) what fees are there if open?

YouTube has Pope super crowded lately and wanna try a new launch. Have been launching Caples and Putah lately.

All of the Berryessa launches were poppin' today. Looked like midsummer form up there. From the Steele Canyon side, it definitely appeared that Spanish Flat was open. Not sure of the launch fee though.

The launch is open despite the building being burnt .. have driven past a couple of times and it looks like they're collecting fees in traditional "money envelope stuffed in slot" method. The fee was $20 per launch, I don't know if that has changed since the last time I was there.

They list the launch as operational on their website https://www.spanishflatcamping.com/price-list and offer the 707-966-0200 number for additional inquiries.

Note: I see on other pages the number being listed as (415) 966-0200 https://www.spanishflatcamping.com/lake-berryessa-news not sure which is the correct one.

I launched a couple times from Oak Shores - and also from the North End, at the Eticuera day use. Oak Shores has a paved path that gets within 100 feet of the water, but in this drought I think the Eticuera area might be a couple hundred yards from the water. Fine if you have wheels and a light kayak, not so much if you have a heavier beast.

I launched from Oak Shores a week or so ago and the paved path went nearly all the way to the water.
