Yes, you can tether your boat at anchor in the water overnight. As the other person stated, you will find that the water level rises and drops each day as water is released from the dams. If you tie your boat off too close to shore, you will find it high and dry the next morning. The other cautionary note is that you cannot always maintain visual contact with your boat/ watercraft from most of the campsites, unless you rent one of the Cabanas. I would guesstimate that 75% of the boaters put their boats back on the trailers for the night and wait for the water levels to rise before venturing back to the river. There are also several areas that become very shallow and hazardous to navigation when the water level is down.
Q:
Are there fire rings in the campsites?
A:
yes, there was a fire pit at our spot
