Corop Store To Reopen
Permalink  

For those familiar with Greens Lake, I see that the Corop Store is to reopen with new entrepreneurs.

I wish them luck in their new venture, however, I feel they are doomed to failure, as previous operators.

According to the FB posts, it seems they are being spurred on by the belief that campers will sustain the business venture.

Probably a good idea Richard as it's on a busy road for those driving past.

I found the biggest problem with previous people in the store was very low stock advertising hot food and none available.

The biggest thing that stopped me going there was the people working there would sit out front smoking and chatting and ignore the customer making you wait for service. If you could call it service. I just gave up. Like many I would think.

A little thought and making the place look inviting on the outside would be a good start to a good business.

I wish the new owners' luck though.



Keep Safe on the roads and out there.

Time will tell Doug. I drive through Corop often so will be able to assess progress.

The last operator was a lovely lady but you had to ring the bell to summon her for service.

No long term campers at Greens these days, one week maximum policed by GMW rangers.

Stanhope, Elmore & Rochester are still the go to places for take-aways, fuel & sundries.

Sadly, the good old days of GreenS Lake have long gone mate.

Still, great memories of the good old days stored in the human hard drive. Many pics stored on the poota hard drive as well.
