Disagree. One place the locals can get away from the tourists. If it requires a small “club fee” to join we may give it a year. Those up for a week or two may not be willing to pony up the yearly fee

If you're a local trying to avoid tourists I would think the Weirs is the last place you would go.

Their website makes no mention of club fees etc. Before you all jump to conclusions and throw this place under the bus why don't you all do a little research what a supper club is or better yet go to their website and ask them.

Why are you assuming they don’t have fees? If it’s ok for you to assume they don’t why isn’t it ok for me to assume they will? The website has little to any relevant information at this time. Let’s all speculate until it’s identified. Are you not entertained?
Also, why are you so angry on New Year’s Eve?

No anger here...just saying folks should not jump to conclusions. The research I did on supper clubs appears to be in line with many other businesses that use the word "club" without charging you to belong. Go google "frequent flyers club" and you will see what I am talking about.

I googled. As far as I can tell, you don't join any of those clubs without spending a lot of $$ first. Whatever 70 North is planning, they're getting some great, free, notoriety in these discussions, so I'd say they are good at their marketing. We'll all know in good time.
If you don't like 70 North, it appears the Lodge at Smith Point is for sale, turnkey. Make an offer and run it the way you like. I hope it is back open soon.

There are plenty of options for dinner in the Lakes Region. It will be quite easy for me to avoid this one!

Just got my first email from 70 north. Nothing earth shattering, but good to be in the know. No, I don't know them, nor am I affiliated with them.
