Our marina was just repurchased by the county after 25 year contract with developer. The marina was managed by Skipper Bud's, now we have Edgewater from MI that started 2 weeks ago. All services (store, restaurant, fuel dock, gas dock) are being subcontracted to new vendors. So, all will be new this year.
County stated they want to make this 950 slip marina the premier place on Lake Michigan, hope they have lots of $$$. They are not bonding as of yet, so we will wait and see.
