Looking at picture for Public Docking, if its full can you park on the outside dock where boat slips are.

Are you referring the out side of "D" dock shown here is Purple?
If so yes you can park there, they are legal docks, but to be perfectly honest I would only do it on a very very calm day. D dock is our wave attenuator, think floating wave wall. If parking on D dock your boat will be broad side to the waves and prevailing wind.

I kinda thought this went without saying but I also have to ask that people do not pull into the slips inside the marina.

How about jet ski parking? Should we plan to tie up to the docks or can we pull up to the beach? I'd just be fearful of damage pulling up to the docks but I definitely want to come check out the place, likely Saturday whether it's on boat or jet ski.

I was wondering the same thing.I'm sure Kurt doesn't want the pwc's blocking up the beach area as there is not that much.I was looking at the area on the shore side of dock "a".Maybe?

Precisely what I was thinking (wishful thinking). Figured it wouldn't hurt to ask!

Where can you park your Snowmobile?

Had to get something mentioned about Snowmobiling, haven't posted any thing for a while.

Seriously this looks like a great place to tie up to. Have to add this to my list of places to get to by BOAT.

SeaWassp · 06-22-2013, 11:45 PM

Stopped by today Place has great potential to be better than it already is! People and Kurt are great. People in Marina are a little cranky. Told me not to dock n area outlined in purple above didn't even say Hi. Just yelled. Food is good beer is cold will be back. Stumps on walk up are tough on feet an toes. Make the bocci court part of the bar!

Waterbaby · 06-23-2013, 12:55 AM

This place sounds great, can't wait to go there! Whether by boat or car, either way I bet the food will be great!

I do have one question though -- how do you park a boat? Last I knew it was docking a boat, and parking a car, lol..................... just wondering. No offense intended!

Just spend some time at any public dock. Some people dock their boat, some park it. It's easy to see the difference!!

On another note, stopped by again yesterday. Wings and burgers were excellent. Jeff and Trevor do an awesome job in the kitchen.
Limited docking though, but not much different than finding a spot in Meredith or Wolfboro on any nice weekend.

BroadHopper · 06-23-2013, 08:56 AM

Some people don't even park/dock a boat. They just ram it in!

Dave R · 07-01-2013, 01:42 PM

Had a nice meal there yesterday with my wife and intend to return. The service was excellent, the drinks were great and the food was great.

The fenders were clean and did not scuff my gelcoat, despite the wakes from the typical weekend boating. A dock attendant tied my boat, but I re-tied it much more loosely since the wind was blowing it away from the dock.

I love the sailboat bar, very clever. The lake view from our table was excellent.

NHKathy · 07-09-2013, 10:37 PM

Street directions for non-boat owners, please?

This place sounds great!

SnS, Isn't it on the right a mile after you pass the arcades (which will be on your left as you pass them)?

Yes you are correct they have a sign out that says beach bar now open.Its not far from the new townhouses being built.

had lunch at AWKA marine a couple of weeks ago It Is a cool place. lunch was very good service was excellent, will definitely go back soon

surfnsnow · 07-10-2013, 10:14 AM

you're right vita, my mistake

Webbsatwinni · 07-10-2013, 10:57 AM

I've heard very good reports on the food, the negatives I do hear are around docking. I heard that boats were damaged as a result of the boat traffic near the weirs last weekend, does anyone have 1st hand knowledge as I have only heard rumor? I want to try it out, but being on an island, we typically do restaurants by boat so we don't need to drive the car (

).
