From what I've heard a lot of RV space renters are POed. Heard the lot spaces are going up from $1800 annually to $4800, not confirmed just hearsay. Allen Sheehan is the new owner. I know the lady that was running the diner at Lake Fork Resort is the new property manager at Axton's (Mascha Taylor) is her name.
I hope it does well!
I too liked the night tournaments Joe put on! Also liked it when Jerry Dean would put on his big bass tournaments for Honey Hole there!

We had several relatives in town for the funeral and several rented rooms at Axtons...when it came time for them to check out,Joe would not accept any payment....R.I.P. Mom,my brother Gordon and Joe Axton....

If that is true that would be the highest lot rental that I have heard about around the lake. I heard the ones in Little Penson are $300 per month and I thought those were too high. $4800 per year is even more.

Couldn't imagine paying triple that.

Many trashy old units in there around the back, may be trying to clean them off and do some improvements to the lakefront area?
Sure miss Joe...was blessed to have many cups of coffee with him in the morning, talking life and bass fishing
