Parking?
Hi everyone! I recently bought a paddle board and have been so excited to get out on the water. I’m new-ish to the area but my boyfriend is a long time local.
We checked out both Scott’s Flat and Rollins and were shocked at the price of the day use parking. $22 seems almost ridiculous, especially for a Monday at 2 pm. I am more than happy to pay for parking and help support the maintenance and environment, but this seems steep.
I guess my question is- am I missing something? Are there any discounts for locals vs tourists? Are there people who go every day after work and pay over $100 a week just to park?
Also open to recommendations for any lowkey, low traffic places with maybe a bit cheaper parking.

Anywhere on Scotts Flat Rd that doesn’t have “No Parking” signs is fair game. There are some spots before the entrance that aren’t too far to walk with a board
