This New American fine dining experience is not to be missed. The Lakehouse can now be reached by boat as well, as guest dockage is available at the new gorgeous bayside locale.*Please note that we not take reservations for particular tables & we cannot promise a particular area or table.

Really enjoyed the igloo experience. Nice private quiet setting in unique surroundings. Most important though, their food was REALLY good! I was expecting to like the igloo more than the food but was pleasantly surprised!
