    Your festive Thanksgiving Buffet was wonderful as always. We especially loved that it included Chicken Marsala this year. My family would be tickled if you would include a traditional turkey stuffing that's made from 'regular' bread as well as that made from cornbread. This is our third year dining at the Bungalow Lakehouse for Thanksgiving, and for the first time we had to wait in quite a long line at the carving station. Perhaps if we had reserved a table for a slightly later hour this wouldn't have happened, as our reservation was for four-thirty when you 'reopened' for evening diners? Thank you to everyone who works so hard to make such an experience possible for us and so many others.

    I go there for the fried pickles I think we got a batch that had been sitting there, they were cold and taste like the oil they were fried in. The entree, salmon was bland I will stick to sandwiches from now on.

    We had the fried pickles, regular fries, chicken po'boy sandwich, and southern crispy chicken salad. The food was great, but nothing too special or different than what we expected. The fried pickles were the best part! Service was simple and fast as we went for lunch so it wasn't too busy. Overall would definietly visit again.

    Bungalows lake House is always a treat to go to. We love sitting in the classic old bar where Matt is the bartender. He’s always excellent to us and the food and service is always terrific.

    Their prime rib special is fabulous, and bartender Matt is amazing!!!! Introduced friends to this gem for the first time and they loved it as well. (And, even though we were at a high top so Matt didn’t actually “meet” them, I know he’ll remember what they were drinking next time we come in.) The downstairs bar is like a country club pub w/o the initiation fee and monthly dues! Highly recommend.
