I think what you are looking at is The Alton Bay Christian Camp. About a year and a half ago there was a fire which destroyed 4 camps immediately adjacent to the water. Some of the dirt or rock that you are seeing is temporary fill placed to access the site in order to clean up and stabilize it after the fire. The same access is being used to allow the reconstruction. The "retainage net" you mention is probably one of a variety of erosion and sedimentation control methods that have been employed on site.
