Be very careful if you rent the back igloos, yes the night was cold, and yes we were warned to dress appropriately. They did say that there was a space heater in the igloo but the space heater was not working correctly as it was on the highest it could go and I could touch the space heater with my hands, my space heater under my home desk would give more heat than what the heater in the igloo. Even with full blown winter clothes scarves gloves it was still very cold almost unbearable.

Our favorite place for food and atmosphere! First time in an igloo, which was so fun and cute! We requested lakeside though and were taken on beachside with no view :( Still 5 stars though! *****

We booked a 2 person igloo and was put in a cold make shift shack next to the igloos. We watched another 2 party go into one of the available igloos and told our server our situation that we had paid for one of them and don’t want to eat in their shack. She looked to be moving things around in the last free available igloo when another server placed a party of 5 in it. Our server came back and said that our reservation said a party of 5 and that there were no available igloos. We decided to eat inside and later talked to the manager. Manager apologized for the mistake and was also confused why they placed us there. He said it did show we were a party of 2 and that the only way to be placed in the shack would have been if we called and agreed to sit there. He also mentioned they only use it for parties over 5 and there must have been a mix up. Our server inside was great and food was good. The manager was also very nice and comped our drinks, ultimately we did not have to pay the igloo fee. Was very disappointed about not being in the igloo but the food and ambiance was still very nice.

The cost was not worth the experience. Heater in igloo was barely giving any heat. Blankets were not clean. Honestly it was not my best igloo experience.
