Marilyn is one of the sweetest shop owners that you will ever meet. She sells her things very fairly, and while she could gouge because there is such limited shopping, she does not. She always has clearance shirts and a great selection of candy. I have seen her tell customers who need to exchange something and there is a line, to just get what you need, fold up what you have and switch on your own. This past weekend, we bought a huge float, but had no way to blow it up, except to head back up to cottage and get the air mattress one. She actually offered up an employee who was blowing up beachballs to stop what he was doing, and attend to our float. Lakeside is so blessed to have her! The kids all yell at her everywhere she goes - she has celebrity status there because of how welcoming she is to the kids. read more
