BARDWELL LAKE, Texas --
Officials with the Fort Worth District, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, today announced the closure of High View Marina at Bardwell Lake, effective April 4, 2023.
Physical closure of the marina was initiated on March 15 due to the lease expiration in February along with multiple health and safety issues. District personnel have been working with the lease holders, Highview Marina LLC, for more than six months to correct past due lease payments and address significant previously noted safety deficiencies.
Officials from the Corps of Engineers said the decision to close the marina doesn’t come lightly. Their top concern is public safety.
As a result of an inspection conducted on March 15, 2023, the premises were closed to public access to avoid potential harm to members of the public.
Patrons and guests of High View Marina are encouraged to recover all personal property and vessels from the marina effective immediately. Access to the marina will be limited and must be coordinated through Highview Marina LLC, or coordinated with the Bardwell Lake Office.
Additional information is available by calling the Bardwell Lake Office at (972) 875-5711, Monday-Friday, 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.
