Dock & Dine South Shore
Dock and Dine
PLETHORA OF OPTIONS ON SOUTH SHORE
Advertisement
BY KATHERINE E. HILL
The South Shore offers many options for boat-in dining from Zephyr Cove on the east side to the historic Camp Richardson on the west side. The boat taxi that runs between Round Hill Pines, Lakeside, Timber Cove and Camp Richardson marinas is closed this year due to low water but is a great way to enjoy dining by boat in the future. As well, the Boathouse on the Pier at Timber Cove is temporarily closed due to a fire in May; check back later in the summer to visit this over-the-water restaurant.
Zephyr Cove Marina & Resort
Dock | You can pull up and enjoy lunch at Zephyr Cove Marina & Resort, home to the “MS Dixie II.” Be sure to give way to the “Dixie” as she enters and leaves for her cruises and availability may be limited when it’s busy. Dine | On the beach, enjoy pub fare and specialty cocktails at Sunset Bar & Grill. Or walk over the Zephyr Cove Restaurant to enjoy burgers and salads. | zephyrcove.com
Round Hill Pines Beach Resort
Dock | Limited docking is available on a first-come, first-served basis and there’s a 90-minute limit (expect loading and unloading only during busy times). Dine | Grab lunch or dinner at Beach Bums Bar & Grill with sandwiches and burgers. Or go for the frosty pineapple and coconut Pain Killer from the Rum Bar on the Beach. There’s also the Snack Shack for quick bites and ice cream. | roundhillpinesresort.com
Ski Run Marina
Dock | In the heart of the South Shore, Ski Run Marina offers a variety of dining options with a boat valet that will meet you as you approach the marina. Dine | One of my favorite boat-in dining options on the South Shore is Riva Grill, the sister restaurant to the North Shore’s Gar Wood’s Grill and Pier. For more casual dining, try the Greek and Mediterranean cuisine at Artemis Lakefront Café or Argentine empanadas from Empanash. Before heading back to the boat, try one of the delicious offerings from The Art of Gelato. | skirunmarina.com

Camp Richardson Resort & Marina
Dock & Dine | Tucked into the western side of South Shore is the historic Camp Richardson Resort, home to the Beacon Bar and Grill and the packsa-wallop Rum Runner. Oh, so good. Purchase a bottle of the Rum Runner Cocktail Mix to take with you and enjoy at home. | camprichardson.com n
