Its a must do. Get a bunch of your friends together and make reservations. You won't be disappointed. Have not been in a few years. Seapilot is the guy to chime in on this.

OK, now down to business: The official name of this facility is Gus' Lodge, although it's often referred to as Mama Lucy's. It was originally part of Camp Idlewild and served as a lodge where parents would stay when they were visiting their kids at Camp. (Gus & Lucy were the ones that owned the facility after Idlewild)

They operate from about late June until late August, sometimes having guests several nights per week. One must reserve in advance and guarantee a minimum of 26 guests (or the equivalent thereof), with a maximum head count of about 40.

Cost for the past few years has been $75.00/head + 20% tip for a total of $90.00/head. There is only one seating per night and the function goes from 6:00 - 9:00pm. It starts with Antipasto on the deck which sits above the boathouse. It then moves to the porch where they serve dinner family style. The menu is pre-arranged by the Lodge, but I'm sure that they can/will address special dietary needs if required.

It's one of the highlights of the summer, so if you've not been then get a group together and schedule a party. The phone number to the Lodge is 253-4440, but is probably shut off for the winter.

Hope this helps.

I went this past July with many of my friends that put on the Wooden Boat Show in Meredith. You have to rent the entire place, we had about 40 folks. The price was $90.00 that included gratuity. You must book far ahead, we booked a year in advance for our wedding reception. Please understand it is Italian food, so don't expect Thai food ! We also brought some of our own wine for dinner. They also had live music, it was great !

I forgot to mention that Gus' Lodge is BYOB.
