Welcome to the Website of Red Rock Yacht Club
Lake Red Rock is situated 55 miles southeast of Iowa's capital city, Des Moines, just a few miles from the well known Dutch community of Pella and the Sprint Car Capital in Knoxville. Formed by a man-made dam on the Des Moines River, the lake itself covers 19,000 acres on a 50,000 acre expanse of public land at normal pool. Excellent camping, hiking, lodging, and launching facilities are available around the lake. Rental slips are available at Red Rock Marina for an overnight stay or for the entire season.
 Red Rock Yacht Club was incorporated in 1977 and is open to all who have an interest in boating at Lake Red Rock. The club maintains a shelter that serves as its primary meeting place near the Red Rock Marina on the north shore. With a full schedule of sailboat racing, social gatherings, work projects, other boating related activities, and our annual Iowa Interlakes Regatta, Red Rock Yacht Club offers something for everyone using the lake, whether they are just in for a short visit or are looking for a permanent home for their vessel.
During the floods of 1993, one of the gates in the dam was damaged. During the autumn of 2008, the lake level will be drawn down 10 ft. from 742 ft. NGVD to 732 ft. NGVD so that the gate can be repaired. Click the Drawdown Soundings in the navigation panel for the latest information.
Look around the site. If you need further information or if you'd like some help planning a visit to Lake Red Rock, please feel free to contact one of the club's officers by clicking the Club Officers link in the left navigation panel.
You are welcome to visit us anytime!! LET'S GO BOATING!!
