I saw on facebook that there were some "luxury" and "high end" rooms that may give you that extra comfort that may help the cause in getting the wife to wanting a return trip in the near future. Forgot the name of them, but im pretty sure the elm creek facebook page posted them.
Elm Creek is nice enough for what youre there for....fishing....and theyll cook you food and leave it in your room before they shut down the kitchen for the night! 100% win after a day of fishing to not have to worry about eating since theres not many options out there Sounds good, thats going to work fine for us.

This little place looks awesome, just snagged up the last large cabin they had available. Now all we need is to figure out the lake, any thoughts. Humminbird does not offer OH Ivie on their chart select maps. Navionics?

Lowake's Steakhouse in Rowena is about 30 miles from the lake.
It’s more miss than hit, Jacobys in Melvin is hands down better as well as beefmaster in Ballinger.

We will definitely be in the hunt for a good steak.

Watch out for a guy in a black caymus, he rides around flipping people off all day. I don’t think he fishes anymore just complains and tells everyone how bad the fishing is

Elm Creek is nice enough for what youre there for....fishing....and theyll cook you food and leave it in your room before they shut down the kitchen for the night! 100% win after a day of fishing to not have to worry about eating since theres not many options out there She’s easy to make happy. Don’t need high end, clean and comfy works for her, she’s a trooper. Elm Creek will be perfect, sounds like a winner.. It depends on what your idea of luxury & high end are. We stayed at Concho Park Motel and it is old & run down at best. I don't think they've put new carpet or a coat of paint on the rooms since 1990. They will make sandwiches for you that are good. Breakfast is good. They close at like 2 pm in the off season (when the big fish are biting) and 5 pm during peak season. Dunno why they call it a marina. It is 1/4 mile from the water. Elm Creek is okay but there is nothing I would call luxury or high end within 100 miles of the lake and I am including Ballinger. The Beefmaster Steakhouse in Ballinger is good food and cheap. We ate there 3 nights in a row. There is also a mini-Walmart in Ballinger if you need supplies. San Angelo is only 50 miles and thats a kick in the nutz to say nothing here is high end even though its true.

This thread is growing like telling fishing tales....  I never once said high class, high end lol. Let me remind everyone my original post what I was looking for us. Tell it like it is... Looking for recommendations to stay on or near O.H Ivie. Me and my wife are planning a Monday thru Thursday trip. Looking for boat friendly and comfortable. Again thanks, we are looking forward to the trip.
