I've been down there. It's safe but not luxurious by any means. If you have local support and transport then I'm sure it is easy going. The flying is good and the glass off conditions before sunset over the lake are amazing. The conditions are good almost the entire day. With 350+ fair weather days and 80degree temps in Jan/Feb make it a nice spot.
I think different groups/schools have access to varous LZs. But the one public LZ at the lakes edge can be tricky to clear the trees and hit the small area of grass. Two hang gliders splashed down in the lake back to back because they could make the turns while I was there. There is a food and beer stand right in that LZ as well. So maybe I need to take back what I said about not being luxurious. :-) Pat
