I don't. The only one off lead on a stay that is for pictures ONLY is the old hag Cuddles. 99.5% of the time she is on lead as well. So no my dogs are not off lead in public.
IF there was another spot to take them on the lake I would take them there, however there isn't. The boal ramp was it for public access so unless you have another spot in mind on the lake that would allow dogs for all of 20 minutes max at a time, there is no other choice.
As to the unoccupied, sure that would be ideal, wouldn't it? Not having to worry about loose dogs jumping on my intact male and humping him while the owner yells at us for having a female in heat in public........ That was classic and sadly all too common.
So if the choice is boat ramp or no swimming? Boat ramp it is. Ideal? No but when it's the only game in town you deal with it.
