I contacted you personally via private message through this forum and told you that we were doing what we can with our processing company to get the value of the gift certificates and would get back to you with an answer.
I love how you did not even put that on this site instead you decide to bash me when you don't even know me. My mother is currently in home hospice dying. I have left the restaurant business to take care of my family. I did not get into this business to deceive anyone. My husband and I have lost lots of money in this venture and will lose more before it is over.

Oh and as far as Bumble knowing we were closing for good
He knows more than me because I own the place and that decision was not made until March when my mother went into the hospital. So Mr. know it all better check his sources.

So for all of you out there who get your jollies passing judgement on people that you don't know. Have a ball and keep on trashing me and my business. I know that I am an honest person and so do my friends and family.

Go ahead and judge away.

Thank you Mr. Polaris for the support. I really do appreciate it.

Dear Woodlandsgirl, I am so sorry that you are going through so much right now. It is especially sad that your mom is in hospice. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family During this difficult time. I am also very sad about you having to close your business.
Hugs,
Celia

Quite frankly, I just noticed the private message once you called my attention to it. They do not pop out and I rarely get them, so I do not look for them and until now I did not notice. However, I thank you for sending the message. I have not yet opened the private message.

As I stated, I dealt with this through my credit card company. I gave the 4 GCs as gifts and they are not in my possession, so it was much easier for me to handle it this way. They were purchased in two separate transactions.

Also, I am not getting my "jollies off". I just wanted the money I trusted you with returned. It is also an embarrassment to me, and I assume others, to give GCs as gifts that are now worthless.

My hope is that a restauranteur will be the winning bid, and we will all have the opportunity to enjoy a nice meal in a nice seeing.

Probably because some decent people who tried to make a go at owning a restaurant were not successful and lost everything..... not only that but that building has a lot of memories for many people around here. Before Woodlands there was the William Tell which was there for many years....so yeah it is too bad to see the place abandoned and on the auction block.

I wonder: is the current owner of the property part of the Woodlands group, or did the owners of the WilliamTell lease the building out to them?

It is owned by J E R K LLC (yep, no joke!). The LLC ties back to a residential address in Northfield, NH. The building was purchased in 2013 so I would say its owned by the person that ran the Woodlands Tavern.

This was the place Eric Weiss owned for a time . Take a look at the things he posted on the Lavinias site and tell me again what a "Decent " guy he might be. Memories of this place are posted with descriptions of the place being "scarie " . Then there was the little closing fiasco with selling gift certificates and making the credit card companies return the money not the restaurant.
Not the memories of the lake most people are looking for

There was an auction of the property this morning at 11:00 AM. Does anyone have an update on the results?

Saw a note in "The Real Report" in last week's Baysider that 1602 Mt Major Hwy, Rest/Bar sold for $150K to "1602 Mount Major Lake LLC". The reg of deeds lists the buyer's address as PO Box 333, Alton Bay.

It was a foreclosure sale.

[Mr. V]

That's one hecuva great price.

Let's hope the owner plans a Swiss restaurant!

That P.O. Box is associated with Prudential Real Estate. I too was hoping for another German/Austrian restaurant. Too bad!

Eric was not the majority owner, far from it actually and held a very small 10% ownership status. Whatever issues he had with Lavinias or any other place, I could honestly care less.

The many many years and memories the William tell operated successfully out of that building and the short time the Woodlands owners poured their heart and soul and many hours into the place just to try and make it successful and then lose everything is more than enough reason to feel saddened by seeing it go to auction.

I guess I'm just not heartless and neither is the majority of lakes region residents...

No, I just think it shows your true character that you think it's funny when hardworking, honest people pour their heart and soul (not to mention a **** of money) into making a once proud staple of the lakes region a functioning business again. It saddens me because I know just how difficult the whole process was for them, and the fact that it did not result in a profitable venture just plain sucks.

Hey, when did I mention it being "funny"?? I simply stated what was happening. That's all. You should check your facts before making acquisitions about someone's "character".
