About this restaurant

  • Great for scenic views
  • Great for creative cocktails
  • Good for special occasions
At the Lake House, we’re short on formalities and big on making you feel comfortable. Stop by for an easy lunch on the deck with blue skies and a cool breeze. Linger over a romantic dinner and drinks in the warm glow of our fireplace. Enjoy the view of a snow-covered lake. Whether you’re with your boss or your best friend, you’re going to have a wonderful time, every time, at the Lake House. Around here, people love the water. When you take a look at the Lake House, this becomes abundantly clear (our location on the marina is no accident). Naturally, we have gorgeous views of the lake. And when the weather is good and enticing, we have an ample bar and deck outside where you can enjoy the breeze - and shoot the breeze with an al fresco lunch or dinner. We’ve even built this attitude into our bar: while it starts out inside, it ends up outside closer to the water. Come see for yourself.

    We typically have a great brunch here and have sat outside for dinner with no issues. For the Mother's Day brunch, we have been coming for several years, but this year, there was no seafood other than fishy cod and most of the food was only luke warm. Our server was just okay, and it seemed like he was either in a bad mood or just didn't care that it was a special day for folks. This will be our last time for Mother's Day brunch. For the price we paid, we expected more, as we have seen in the past.

    The food was excellent (Salmon and filet mignon). The service was attentive, especially for a Friday. The restaurant is small and full of energy (suggest making reservations). Great view of the marina and there’s outdoor seating full of sun! We plan to be back with our friends.

    This chef is so creative. He does a great job with fresh, locally sourced ingredients. This night he had a delicious venison on the menu that was outstanding. Service was great and a friendly atmosphere with exceptional views.

    Really enjoyable Easter buffet with wide range of offerings, from breakfast classics to a lamb and ham carving station, salads, chicken and beef dishes, very nice vegetable mix that was tender and not overdone, tasty potatoes au gratin and much, much more. The lamb was delicious and the tiramisu I had for dessert was excellent. The buffet tables were well maintained and kept tidy. The staff checked in regularly and kept us in water and drinks. Really nice afternoon.
