Love the atmosphere at The Lake House! Bartenders are great, treat you like old friends. Owner came out to talk with us and shoot the poop. GREAT experience! Drinks were awesome!

We had the patty melt, Reuben, burger and wings. All were great and the staff was wonderful. Would definitely recommend.

This was a great low key breakfast place. Friendly staff & great food were a great start to our morning.

Celebrated friend's birthday here. Drinks & food very good & atmosphere was the best. Our friend Craig was performing so that made things even better. A place we look forward to visiting again!

Food selection was not big, but what we had was excellent. Good view of the lake, cold beer, and friendly staff.

Food great, atmosphere incredible.

I had a not-so-good experience with the "drinks" and staff - the dark-haired bartender with the beard has no business being in the hospitality business. He was surley and unfriendly. We ordered 2 call drinks. He mixed them in front of us and gave us about a 1.5-second pour - less than 1/2 oz. of liquor - charged us $13.50 for the drinks - the 7-UP line in the gun had not been purged and it was flat - the drinks were terrible,- I could not taste the difference between a rum & 7 and a gin and tonic - but the bartender was so unfriendly that we decided just to drink them and not come back. He came out on the patio while we were there - he was irritated and asked us "Is that your green car out there???!!!" - some car had parked wrong (it was not ours). Otherwise, I know this can be a nice place and has a decent deck for lake viewing.

We arrived to enjoy a drink and the view- I smiled at the bartender and he snarled back (a young guy with dark hair and a beard). He had a bouncer's demeanor - not friendly at all - he has no business in the hospitality business. We ordered 2 call drinks. He mixed them in front of us and poured less than 1/2 oz. of liquor in each drink (not a 1.5 oz shot) - ridiculously weak drinks. I paid $13.50 for the drinks. We went out to the patio - The drinks were so watered down and flat, I could not tell which drink was the Rum and 7 and which was the gin & tonic. We decided the slightly darker drink was the rum and 7 - the 7 was flat. The same bartender came out and asked "Is that your green car?" - a car was parked wrong - it wasn't, but gee whiz, dude, could you smile or be pleasant? If I ever come back, I'll stick with beer. The place has a decent lake view and has potential, but the drinks and service were bad.

We stopped in tonight for dinner. Had chicken and a hamburger. The food was great and very fast service. We sat outside on the Patio and had a good view of the lake. The staff and owner we very friendly and treated us very well.

Great food with a warm, welcoming atmosphere! Come for a quick drink or a relaxing dinner with friends, you won't be disappointed.
