Hmm hell of an insurance payout on those places. Sad to see the landmark go but something tells me they’ll have no problem building McMansions again.
Sad to hear. Never been there but went past it many times and I always thought the pastel colored housed looked very cool.
We were last there in '16 so it's been a while. Always well managed with wonderful staff members. Before the pandemic, non members, like us, could sometimes go during the week when things were quiet. Never had to wear a jacket to dinner, just slacks and a nice shirt, always great food. Had gotten a bit $$$ over the years, island upcharge and seasonal business. Sadly 6 of the pictured homes are gone, seen on a cloudy day. But it's an opportunity to rebuild higher off the water. Think they got wet during higher lake water levels the last several years.
@Ezsteps @Brent Nutting @Great Lakes …. Notice your last Great Lakes ….. one head. It’s official I am up in St Clair last week in July first week in August….. mostly at NCYC…… we need to get together….. no excuses….. especially Great Lakes I reinstated my membership at crews nest this summer so if you characters are down my way….. let me know
Hey Blueone, let's get together for sure when you are up at NCYC. I assume you will have your dinghy with you at that time? Looking forward to getting the boat back in the water, not sure if we will make it to PIB this year, but I would say there is good chance of it. If we plan it, we will reach out in advance.
I'm going to mark this on my calendar. I'll have to plan a few days off during this time to make sure we can get together...I might have to text Rich and make sure he see's this. It don't seem like he's around here as much since he got that Formula...
Are we even allowed at NCYC? I’ve been there for a poker run but I thought it was members only. Btw: when you go faster than 25knts you only need one head..
We’re heading to PIB sometime in July. Probably going to CN again since the boss likes it there. We’re not going to have the kids either. First time for that.
Yes of course great spot we visit 2 or 3 times a year….. we have same spot reserved this Labor Day…..same three boats
Blue are you a member of NCYC or do you go as a guest? Maybe we all could plan on going there for a night or something if we're allowed to. If not we're definitely going to have to figure something out so we can meet up.
No I am reciprocating from PIBYC… you. Have to be a member of a recognized ilya club. I can only stay during the week then thinking of going to algonac on the weekend end of July
