New dock at LLOP

New courtesy dock at LLOP can hold 10-14 boats

More boaters can now moor up at Lake Lanier Olympic Park for Food Truck Fridays and other fun events coming up this summer. An additional courtesy dock that can hold 10-14 boats, depending on size, has been installed on the park’s tower side.

“The dock was donated by a neighborhood that is replacing it with a new dock,” said LLOP Executive Director Robyn Lynch. “We only had to pay to have it moved and do some minor maintenance.”

The popular lakeside venue can now accommodate up to 24 boats.

Improvements are also in the works across Clarks Bridge Road on the park’s boathouse side. The decades-old restrooms, long time eyesores that had been closed and replaced with portable potties, were being demolished in early April. New facilities are scheduled to be completed in August.
