JOHNSON'S RANCH MARINA, located on Caddo Lake in Uncertain, Texas, is the oldest inland
marina still operating in the State of Texas. Caddo Lake is the only natural lake in Texas (and was
the only lake until the construction of reservoirs.) JOHNSON'S RANCH has been serving the
sportsmen of Texas since 1908.

Johnson's Ranch has the only boat gasoline on Caddo Lake. Their 93 Octane Super Unleaded will keep your motors running smoothly.

Today JOHNSON'S RANCH MARINA is a full service marina supplying the sportsman with fuel, live bait, artificial lures, snacks, get-and- go food, boats (with or without motors), canoes and kayaks. Uncertain population signs, Caddo inspired books, matted photographs, postcards and koozies are for sale. A parking lot and concrete boat launch is easily accessable.

The large covered, over-the-water dock at JOHNSON'S RANCH affords visitors a relaxing spot to get together and socialize or fish. The pier offers a panoramic view of Caddo's main waterway, Big Cypress Bayou and the quaint stilt house across the bayou, called "Dick and Charlie's Tea Room" (used in the opening scene of the series, "Trueblood" (Caddo Lake has served and continues to serve the film industry with a spectacular background for numerous films, documentaries and product promotions).

During inclement weather (or televised ball games) a lounge inside the office building entices folks at JOHNSON'S RANCH to warm themselves near a wood-burning stove in a comfortable setting of tables and chairs (dominoes anyone?) Displays of memorabilia from days gone by accent the room. And, there is free wireless internet! (Yes, JOHNSON'S has gone high tech!)

A friendly staff includes owners, Billy Carter and his wife, Dottie, Sherlyn, Lori and Angi. The staff welcomes your visit to JOHNSON'S RANCH. Each is more than welcome to answer questions and share their knowledge of Caddo Lake.
