When news broke in late December that Ski Shores Waterfront Cafe on Lake Austin was closing, groans of disappointment could be heard on Internet food forums: "Major bummer. Another unique Austin place bites the dust," one Yelp commenter said.
The good news for fans of dockside dining is that another restaurant will open at the Ski Shores site at 2905 Pearce Road, reports Austinite Brad Fowler, whose family owns the property.
The restaurant building is closed for repairs and maintenance until a new tenant takes over, likely in the early spring, said Fowler, whose father, Marion Fowler, first built a restaurant at Ski Shores in 1954.
We reported the closing of Ski Shores Waterfront Cafe in Food Matters after an e-mail from George and Dianne Levy, who leased the Ski Shores building from the Fowlers. "After a 13-year presence on Lake Austin, the Levy family has decided to close its doors," the e-mail said. "It was a wonderful run."
