kenNJ Posted August 4, 2008 Share Posted August 4, 2008 Just moved to CA from Lake Mohawk NJ. I live very close to a place called "Ski Ranch" in the Oildale area. Dose anyone have any info on how or if I can bring my boat and ski there? Are there any other ski lakes besides Ski west and Ironwood?

Administrators Horton Posted August 4, 2008 Administrators Share Posted August 4, 2008 It used to be called Thompson Ski Ranch. It is pretty close to my house. It was a ski lake in the 1970s and 1980s. Sometime in the 90s it became a kids camp and now I hear it is for sale.  Kinda small I think and I do not know about bouys and such. Ironwood is the best if you do not own a lot. I ski SkiWest Lake 3 all the time... look for the silver Subaru WRX (I ski SkiWest lake 3, Adobe, Precision, Paradise and sometimes Bannana) See http://virtualglobetrotting.com/map/7270/view/?service=0 Horton Goode ★ HO Syndicate ★ KD Skis ★ MasterCraft ★ PerfSki Radar ★ Reflex ★ S Lines ★ Stokes Drop a dime in the can Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kenNJ Posted August 6, 2008 Author Share Posted August 6, 2008 I have my boat with me, and would love to find some people to ski the courses at any of the lakes. The $500. monthly fee at Ironwood is a litte steep for me any sujestions? Kenny kenknoll@flybca.org Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Horton Posted August 6, 2008 Administrators Share Posted August 6, 2008 are you sure it is $500 per mo? Goode ★ HO Syndicate ★ KD Skis ★ MasterCraft ★ PerfSki Radar ★ Reflex ★ S Lines ★ Stokes Drop a dime in the can Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kenNJ Posted August 6, 2008 Author Share Posted August 6, 2008 As per heir web site, July Aug $500.00 than down to $100. for Dec. I am looking to rent in Ski West if anything opens up. I dont really care too much for Bakersfield, so I am not sure I want to buy here. Kenny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Director Darwin Posted August 6, 2008 Baller Share Posted August 6, 2008 $6000/year seems a bit steep for a place like Ironwood but supply and demand dictate pricing. California is not a good example of market pricing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Horton Posted August 6, 2008 Administrators Share Posted August 6, 2008 I thing that is a missunderstanding. I thought was a lot less then that. I do not own anything out there but maybe I could show you around some time. Feel free to contact me directly.

Administrators Horton Posted August 8, 2008 Administrators Share Posted August 8, 2008 Porterville is a nice site. It belongs to Randy Paquette and he does have a club so that might be a good deal for you. Randy is the super good guy. It is a lot longer drive then Arvin.
