    I absolutely love to see new local businesses that are family owned and operated. Chesnie's is a charming little cafe/diner right on the water and is conveniently located in a campground! Hands down the best burger I've ever had at the lake! It's no wonder too, the owner, a former fire fighter, definitely knows how to grill 'em!!! Polite, clean, and friendly establishment. Chesnie's is a prime spot for fishermen to get breakfast before heading out or lunch when getting back in! They serve home cooked style breakfasts that are delicious and filling! Inside there is an enclosed area to fish in, which was very cool! Definitely stop by this place when camping or when you're out in the water! They offer dockside service! I'll definitely be back!

    Went for lunch. Burgers were good, staff was friendly, and prices were reasonable. There's seating for both indoor and outdoor dining. If you're looking for it, it is near the end of the cove, past Bulldogs. Sign says Happy Hour Monday-Thursday, 2pm-4pm.

    Double time!

    This little place packs a punch. Great burgers for the best price on the water. The service is awesome from Chesnie herself. Im a very satisfied customer and will spread the word. The cove is perfect for a quiet getaway off the main channel.

    If you're tired of crappy, expensive food at the other restaurants on the lake, give Chesnie's a try.

    Love this place. We go by boat and bring the dogs. Everything has been very good each visit. We…read morelike the dry rub and garlic parm wings. My new go to is the Birria tacos. It's a lot of food especially after a few wings. Three corn tortilla tacos stuffed with I believe it was shredded beef and some type of Mexican cheese. Served with a really good au jus type sauce and another cold sauce, maybe mango salsa? It's well worth the price and you probably have a full taco left over for lunch the next day.its covered open-air seating with several TVs above the bar and some games to play in the coveted patio open space. They have a stage so I'm sure there is music in the evening but we usually go for lunch or early dinner. Great view out to the water and plenty of parking slips for boats. It's right behind Pointe Oasis gas dock.

    Boating to Lake House 13 is always a must when we are out in the Ozarks! We were so excited to…read morevisit again this past weekend (Sunday July 27, 2025). Sadly, it was by far the most disappointing dining experience of all the times we have visited. At this most recent visit, we noticed there were not that many customers sitting inside or outside. Even though it was super hot and humid, we still opted for an outdoor table to get the full lakeside experience! Instant regret because we were all dying from dehydration and getting just water took painfully long. Our server was apologetic though so no big deal. Now onto the food. We always start with an order of cheese curds because how can you not! For my entree, I was really craving a salad. I was debating between the House salad and the Greek salad but ultimately decided on the Greek solely because the latter came with chickpeas and artichokes! Yum! We shouldn't have been surprised that the food also took forever to come out...but we were.. because again we always had good experiences.. Cheese curds came out crispy and heavenly so no complaints there! But my buddha my poor salad. The greens were overdressed and there was not a chickpea or artichoke in sight! Hello chickpea artichoke where are you?! I really didn't want to complain but it was an expensive salad so we ended up letting our server know just so she can inform the chef that some key ingredients were missing just as an FYI. Well our server later informs us that the chef didn't forget the ingredients, they just ran out but didn't bother telling anyone????? I don't know bro but that's just messed up. Especially when you still end up serving a tiny portion with missing ingredients. We paid for the check and still left a good tip because it wasn't our servers fault but what a pretty disappointing experience all around. -Sailor out
