Ok... pulling into the parking lot, first impressions do not do this place justice. Don't get me wrong, it is obvious the property is kept up and has had a recent facelift but it is a lakeside motel. It doesn't really beckon you in. However once we opened the door we were pleasantly surprise, especially with the patio.
Sitting outside you have a view of the lake as well as a nice water feature and an old boat that seemed great for the kids to play on. The other table had a few kids with them and they were able to run around and play and it was enough space that it more than fine as a diner without kids.
The menu is pretty simple. A lot of seafood, which is not my thing, but they had a Michigan salad so that is what I ordered. Hubs got the perch sandwich. We got the onion ring tower to start. Food was all really good. They have a lot of fry options which is pretty cool.
The star of the meal? The spicy Bloody Mary. No lie, it might be the best I have ever had. I make the best Bloody Mary. I obsessed over it and I tolerate most when I am out but this one was impressive. So much so that I told our server to tell the bartender how good it was.
We were here for a late lunch. I have no idea how this place is for dinner or as a bar hang out but I highly recommend lunch on the patio on a beautiful day. 5 stars all the way. read more
