I'm not sure if this still goes? But the owner told me a few years ago that they closed it during the summer months for the partyers but if you knock on the door and you're a fisherman he'll let you go on in. I've always found it difficult to knock at 4;30 am. I'm sure that they wouldn't apperciate that. During the day to fish or a late boat take out would be fine. We did it late year and no problem.
