Default How busy is it this year at the lake?

With things opening up again I suspect people have been chomping at the bit to travel, and the lake is a great destination.

How are the tourism numbers shaping up so far this year?

Are there many vacancies for rentals?

Is the Weirs filled with visitors?

Is traffic pretty congested?

Yes, to all those questions and no to vacancies

I could be wrong - but from Belmont to Meredith seems about the same as it was last summer... other than it seems a bit cooler and wetter.

I think most of the local businesses adapted rather well to the changing variables in their businesses.

It's been strange recently because I've found that all the restaurants have lines out front of them on Friday nights but there seems to be a little less of a crowd on Saturday nights.

Maybe weekenders on a Friday that just got in and don't wish to shop and prepare food, while on Saturday at the cottage relaxing... maybe even a cookout.

With those additional diners, I would suspect a line.
