my marina 45 September 2009 Mercader maintains and manages everything from boat rentals to the restaurant, and takes great pride in his work. Visitors can go from the air-conditioned comfort of a lodge room to utter seclusion on the lake in a snap. The privacy is such that within a three-mile radius of Grider Hill Dock, it is said that more than 2,000 boats can seclude themselves in the numerous bays and coves so that not one is in the way of another. If quiet and seclusion is not your cup of tea when on vaca- tion, no need to fear. There's no place closer to 76 Falls and Party Point than Grider Hill Dock, which is only four miles away on Indian Creek. These favorites of party-goers boast of popularity, festivity and celebration. The fishing is phenomenal, and anglers enjoy it any time they've got the itch. Fishing guides work out of Grider Hill year-round, so the lodge is available for those who en- joy winter fishing, as well. "The water is pretty warm even through October," Mercado said. Be the next person to land a 40-pound striper, a lunker smallmouth or a string of bluegill. Located in the scenic southwestern mountains on the lake, Grider Hill Dock also offers over 750 covered and uncovered slips. Explore the gorgeous waters with a small boat rental. The dock offers pontoons, fishing boats and personal watercraft for daily and half-day rentals, as well as luxurious houseboats with all the bells and whistles. And whether you choose a houseboat, cruiser, runabout, fishing boat or PWC, Grider Hill Dock's wide variety of slip sizes can easily accommodate your boating needs with access to water, electric, cable TV and wireless internet. The 28-foot and 30-foot model pontoons feature a gas grill, water slide and top deck for a fun-filled day with the family. Just a bit inland, Indian Creek Restaurant offers the finest in Southern style lakeside dining. Indian Creek offers inside dining as well as casual terrace dining. The full service menu
