Several things that have been suggested have been tried and failed. It just gets back to either coming up with a year round solution or finding something that will generate enough revenue in 12 weeks to support 52 weeks of debt. Many people posting here only see this area from Memorial Day to Labor Day and don't understand what it is like at the lake for the rest of the year.

I continue to wonder how the Mount Washington stays in business. Most days when I see it go by there does not seem to be enough people aboard to even pay for the fuel. I hope it is here forever. and I think that it is a great way for tourists to see the lake. but in reality it is one more example of the difficulty of operating a profitable business in the Lakes Region.
I do not mean to be negative but I do understand the difficulties that every business and property owner in the Weirs Beach area faces.
