Conkling Marina & Resort

"2.17.24: Recently moved here in the last few months and live around the corner from the Conkling Marina. Right now it's closed for the season, but I wanted to explore the area I live in and see what kind of views the marina has. This is not a review for the RV park, or restaurant, nor services offered. The view of the trees and CDA lake on the way to the marina was really nice. We decided to stop by around sunset as we were returning home from the local market. I didn't expect the marina to be huge and it wasn't. On this cold brisk day, some parts of the lake were looking glass-like and that was beautiful. The empty marina provided a great pic and in my opinion captured the winter vibe. Being a passenger in the car, I enjoyed the ride home more as I could see the trees and lake better from my side. Overall, I'm quite happy I live near the marina and could enjoy water close by during the summer."

"Nice marina. Needs some sprucing up, but hoping new owners follow up with some deferred maintenance. Staff is super nice. Food at the restaurant is great!"

"Conkling Marina was our go-to breakfast spot on the lake beginning in 2016. Loved the owners, staff and atmosphere. This is the second season for the new owners and they continue to miss the mark. After a dismal beginning this season we decided to give them a try last Sunday. Website states they have brunch on the weekend and open at 10am thru Oct 1. We arrived at 11am. They were just opening and our server said they stopped serving brunch last weekend. The couple in after us also wanted breakfast and was unaware of the change as well. The prices are high for the food you receive and options are limited. Our server, as all staff we have talked to, have been very friendly. Conkling was known as a friendly hopping place for a great meal and full of locals. Unfortunately more and more we find ourselves heading to Harrison and passing up Conkling Marina."

"Years prior we went here all summer long for lunch when we were out on the lake. Last year under new management it was awful. Tried again the other day hoping that the new owners would actually read the reviews from people and make some changes. No such luck. 26.00 fish and chips... ridiculous!! Only one other group of people, so business has to be suffering but still the owners aren’t paying attention. We will not be back. Very sad, it was one of the last great places on the lake."

"$8.00 Michelob Light and $19.00 Hamburger…. we loved this place prior to new owners. Sad…. the change is not what is good for the south end of the lake. We frequent this place plenty of times during the summer but that will not be happening anymore"
