Topsiders has a free dock and a pay dock or "reserved" as one would say. We have never done the pay side and have gone there every time down and loved it. But as someone else said and we have seen it true, the party on the reserved dock is as good as in the place!

Didn't work. Try the one below!

Give this a shot. It might help get around.

How come??? I have a place around the corner from Topsiders and pass it everyweek end many times. I have yet to stop in . It looks abandoned. I've never seen a party on the dock or deck. I'm I missing something? I'd be stopping if it was going to be a good time. $100.00 to dock your boat and drinks are not included......then what is??? What am I going to get for 100.00.? Hell, I can go to Dogs, BWJ, Dorseys, Shorty Pants, ect and it won't cost a penny to dock there. Still not sure what my 100.00 will get me. If they really are charging to dock then maybe thats why there are no boats there. :eek:

Topsiders really does not start getting busy until about 10pm.

The $100 is for parking only. A lot of the slips are reserved for the entire season on Friday nights. On most regular weekends, the new docks are reserved and the older ones are free. Holidays and big weekends they will charge for both. Last time I went a holiday, it was $50 on the old docks. You can't get onto the docks with out a wristband saying you came from the docks and you can only get on the pier you came from.

Actually there are a lot more people that come by car than by boat on Friday nights. It is more of a dance club than most other bars at the lake and girls don't wanna mess up their hair going by boat. We have been on several Sat nights and it was still a decent crowd, especially on holiday weekends. No docking fee either.

Monday night at topsider is crazy too! free docking at 1 dollar everything. (not all shots). its wild.

We must have got lucky because we went there fri night weekend of the poker run & didnt have to pay a dime for the slip. New docks too. Still not a big fan of the place, too loud inside & too many steps/levels to find people.

Sat night always ... Haven't been to topsiders yet, mybe in few weeks!

Dog Days, Capt'n Rons, Jolly Rogers, I frequent the most, in the day.
