It is with a heavy 💔 heart that we are telling you we have lost a one of a kind. Dave was one of our favorite people , we didn’t start off on the best “feet” but Dave , Dana and I grew to truly love each other , well Dana and I already loved each other but Dave was something else! Anyone who knew Dave knows what this means 😊
Dave had become a “staple” in our lives throughout the summers over the last 17 years. As we got to know him we enjoyed so many , often too many laughs with him ,, Dave was , the Mayor , Security and just a great guy .. Rest peacefully Dave you ol’ son of a gun! We are going to miss you something awful 💔 our hearts go out to Bonnie, Dave , Sherrie and his whole family 😞
Why we do what we do!! It is always a pleasure to have many great people as our guests season after season!

As you may have noticed we have been having some issues with the WiFi for a few weeks , our antennas somehow had their names wiped from the system .. we also had 2 antennas “fry” . It is till not 100% fixed and we had to create a new password but the network is still the same and we added a router so hopefully when the 2 antennas are replaced it will give off a stronger signal

As per the NYS DEC..Lily pad existence in a pond ( such as ours...shallow )/is crucial for the well being of the many life forms beneath its surface water...this includes fish..
We are trying/ through trial and error/ to leave about 30% cover as it provides much needed oxygen/ shade/ for the healthy wildlife our pond enjoys/ this also includes our current healthy bass population...one that has come back from a ‘winter kill’ 6 years prior/that now produce bass @ 5pound weight and better...
Evidence of its rebounded health is the abundance of frog life this pond enjoys...
So the next time one wants to play Marine biologist/ and question the procedure we are trying to accomplish/ instead of attacking our reputation and our intended goals...ask us first...we will be more than happy to give you the heads up.
Being a neophyte on many subjects pertaining to the mechanics of a park/ an RV /or in this case the ecological well being of a pond ( referring to the Lilly pads as ‘ WEEDS 🤣 ) is not only untrue/ but embarrassing to the consignor/ consignors of such info...
