Construction has started on the Red Pines bar and grill at W7301 Hwy. Z, on Lake Onalaska in the town of Onalaska. “I’d like to be open in May,” owner Mark Koblitz said. Koblitz, who lives in the Town of Medary and owns rental housing in the area, said he bought the former Red Sails Resort and Campground property in May 2006 and switched to the Red Pines name. The resort had a bar that burned several years ago.”The property became available, and it’s unique in that there isn’t anything else on the lake,” Koblitz said. “It did a good business when it was there before,” he said of the bar.Koblitz said the foundation is in for his 3,200-square-foot, one-story building, which will have a North Woods look inside and outside. Smoking won’t be allowed in the bar and grill, he said. Healthy Kneads Massage Therapy opened this week in Suite 104 at 205 Green St.
