Yes it is on the Bagnell Dam strip. No connection to Nauti Marine. Dale Blue has been playing at Dog Days for years and a few other venues. He finally pulled the trigger and is opening his own place. His opening date at the Nauti Rooster keeps getting pushed back because of typical LOTO construction delays.

Thanks so much for all your replies!! With our schedule the one day that we would boat on LOTO would be Saturday. I guess I'll have to let my husband make the call. We avoid our local lake (Lake Geneva, WI) on weekends due to all the boat wake - it's doable but not very relaxing. Thanks again!!

Yea, just to be clear it hasn't opened yet, anyone interested in exactly when it opens should post up and one of the LOTO regulars surely will pipe and and give the update.

We're all waiting for it to open also, so we'll know right away.

I do not think you would enjoy LOTO on a Saturday with your boat. The main channel will be 2-5' wakes. There is still plenty do at LOTO from land. You could hit one of the local on the water restaurants(there are dozens of great ones) and see what LOTO is all about.

A word of warning- If you stop at LOTO first, you will spend the rest of the vacation wondering why you did not stay there!

LOL - we really LOVED Table Rock when we spent a week there in 2008 but by the end of the week it was just a little TOO quiet for us. Was hoping to see what LOTO was all about but it almost sounds dangerous for us to spend a Saturday checking it out.

Default Great weekend!!

Just wanted to report back and send thanks again to everyone for the information. We ended up at Holiday Shores at the 17 MM - nice quiet cove - good launch ramp and slip for our boat. Friday afternoon we ventured to Backwater Jacks and on to Party Cove. Super storm rolled in very early Saturday morning but our boat was perfectly fine. Saturday we ended up at Golfball Cove - very nice, and we liked it a lot better than Party Cove. Ran over to Dog Days for a snack. Even took an evening cruise after dinner and saw the incredible house with the helicopter. Wow - I need to start buying lotto tics! All in all I would have to say that although we LOVED all the action and places to stop and eat, drink and be merry we prefer Table Rock. It seems cleaner and WAY more relaxing for our kind of boating. Thanks again for all the help with planning our weekend and we'll probably make a long weekend trip again some time cuz it is a Fun Lake!!
