New owners
owners of the lake inn.
By CHARLOT M. DENMON
Staff Correspondent
The Waterfront Inn at Harveys
Lake has new owners - Jeffrey
and Wayne Collinson, former res-
idents of New Jersey. The ‘busi-
ness and the lake are entirely
new to the Collinson families.
“We lived along the Jersey
Shore and Point Pleasant area,”
explained Wayne, the younger of
the two brothers. ‘Jeff and his
wife, Michele, and my wife,
Judith and I, tired of working for
someone else and, after serious
consideration, decided the four of
us would purchase a bar and
restaurant business.
“We began answering ads in
various papers,’ said Wayne.
“And among those we answered
was one in the Philadelphia
Inquirer. It turned out to be the
We had never been to this area
before, but when we came up to
look over the place all four of us
liked it.
“After looking at numerous
places and evaluating all the
pros and cons, we decided this
was the closest to the type of
area we wanted within: our price
range.”
Wayne explained the business
venture was a family operation
from the beginning and all deci-
sions had to be unanimous. Once
the Collinsons agreed on the local
inn, they purchased it from John
and Joseph Ryan, who had oper-
Dallas Post/Charlot M. Denmon
ated it for three years.
“We were fortunate to meet
the original owner, Jack Link,
when we first came here last
fall,” said Wayne. ‘“‘And after
talking with him, we decided we
wanted to operate the place in
much the same manner he had.
We had many residents tell us
how popular the place was when
it was known as ‘‘Link’s
Tavern’.
A family affair is what the
Waterfront Inn has become with
Jeff, Wayne, Michele and Judith
taking their turns in the kitchen,
behind the bar and waiting on
tables.
Jeffrey and Michele have two
boys, Brad and Jason, and the
four of them with Wayne and
Judith, live in the efficiency and
two-bedroom apartments over
the business.
For the former Jerseyites, it’s
quite a change from their pre-
vious work. Wayne and Judith
were certified teachers in the
state of New Jersey, teaehing
emotionally disturbed - children;
and Jeffrey was a glazier fore-
man for the Glazier’s Union.
“We put in a lot of hours and
work hard, but we’re enjoying
ourselves,’”’ the four agreed.
“The people who come in here
are great and give us a lot of
encouragement.”
Since assuming ownership of
the Waterfront, the Collinsons
have updated the heating
system, put in a six foot TV
screen, installed a new sound

installed a new sign on the front
of the business.
Before the summer season
begins, they plan to install air
conditioning, renovate the dock
area, remodel the kitchen,
expand the restroom facilities
and renovate the outside.
They plan to have a menu
similar to that served by the late
Jack Link - sandwiches, soups,
salads, chili, chicken fingers,
shrimp, cauliflower, mushrooms,
deep fat-fried potato skins, plus a
daily special.
“We are going to try to operate
a place where families can come
in the afternoon and early eve-
ning and where those out for a
good time can gather at night.
“We have entertainment on
Friday and Sunday nights,
usually a duo or a single, and we
have two for the price of one
every Sunday night from 7 to 9
.m.
“The Waterfront is open from 4
p.m. to 2 a.m. daily, noon to 2
a.m. Saturday and from 1 p.m. to
1 a.m. Sunday.”
During fishing season, the Col-
linsons are serving an ‘‘early”

to open for lunch.
It is a family affair, no doubt,
for not only the two brothers and
their families but their parents,
grandparents and sister come
from time to time for confer-
ences - to offer suggestions and
ideas.
