    Oh my goodness! Worth the drive out from McCall! Our family of 15 had zero complaints and loved everything. Burgers, fries, fish and chips, finger steaks, you name it we loved it. Service was friendly and fast and we wanted to adopt the cook because she knows what he's doing for sure!

    Fantastic food and outstanding staff. Great conversation in a nice warm rustic log cabin.

    It was a busy Sunday morning, and Lakefront Bar & Grill was packed! Thankfully, we didn't have to…read morewait long before being seated. The restaurant is in a beautiful location right by the lake and golf course, making it a great spot to enjoy a meal while visiting Cascade. Everyone working seemed genuinely happy, friendly, and helpful. The restaurant was clean and bright, and our order was taken quickly. We enjoyed our cocktails while we waited--mimosas with just a teeny-tiny splash of OJ and a Bloody Mary. No complaints here; they were made perfectly! The food didn't disappoint either. My friend and I shared the steak sandwich, while our husbands ordered breakfast dishes. The steak was cooked perfectly to medium-well, and we opted for the sweet potato fries, which came out hot and delicious. I would definitely visit Lakefront Bar & Grill again the next time we're in Cascade!

    The desk clerk at our hotel recommended this restaurant. It was a Monday, and they are closed on…read moreMondays. So, we came tonight, Tuesday, at about 6:15. The place was very busy, and there was a wait. However, their system for handling new arrivals was disorganized. An older woman stood at a counter, and everyone lined up behind her. But, she never said anything, chatting with an employee, and no employees took charge. I walked to a register and was given a buzzer. Other people came after us, and also lined up behind this woman. Confusing and annoying. We waited about 15-20 minutes, and were seated. This was the only part of our experience that was good; a view of the lake. We waited close to 10 minutes, and our server came over, a young woman named Kiley. All of the servers were hustling, and I suspect they had too many tables. So, while she was doing her best, we received only average service. My wife being the generous, compassionate person that she is, we still tipped her 20%. The food was the worst part. We both had the surf and turf, an 8 oz sirloin steak and four jumbo shrimp. It comes with soup or salad (we chose salad) and two sides (we had a baked potato and fruit. Our salad and entree came out at the same time, which is a first world problem. Still, salads usually come out first and I prefer it that way. The baked potato was good, as was the salad. On the other hand, I was looking forward to grilled shrimp and these were breaded. Bummer. The fruit was like a canned fruit cocktail. Really? And the absolute worst: the steak. We asked for medium. It was dry, tough, and chewy. Essentially inedible, though I tried, but ultimately left a good portion uneaten. My wife did the same. This was the fourth place we ate at since arriving yesterday morning, and the only true disappointment. I'm not counting the hotel breakfast because you know what those complimentary breakfasts are like. No high expectations there. It is very possible that on a different day we might get good food and service. But, we'll never know.

    The Elkhorn B&B has, if anything, gotten even better since my last visit. Debra, the…read moreowner/innkeeper, has expanded her flock of goats and now is mastering the art of goat cheese and milk-making, selling her creative chevre combinations at local farmers' markets and offering advice to would-be artisan farmers (or wannabes) along with her signature ranch house breakfasts (think fresh eggs, hash browns, melon, sausage, and excellent dark rich coffee). She's also a fountain of knowledge and great conversationalist, and her elegant ranch home quickly feels familiar within the first few minutes of arrival (once you open the gate and bounce along the gravel driveway to the barnside parking). This time, I decided to get creative and took a sunrise hike before breakfast to the summit of nearby Council Mountain (8126 ft.) in the Payette National Forest. Admittedly, it was a bit of an adventure, with fallen Ponderosa pines (the good Samaritans have chainsaws in their trucks up here), black bear cubs, a great grey owl, kestrels, and a herd of free-ranging cattle, and I didn't get back until 11:30 am, so my breakfast was an early lunch. But the chance to see the mountains from an exquisitely rugged vantage point made the 12-mile morning trek worth the effort. The food and company that Debra provided after were most welcome. You don't actually need to do a hike like that to have a good stay at the Elkhorn (or bring along French wine to drink on the patio while watching the lightning and rains come in at night). You could just hang out for a while and soak in the hip ranchhouse atmosphere while goats, horses, sheep, mules, chickens, dogs, and other creatures wander about. It's definitely a pioneering sort of place - a 21st century version of a Western American classic, with WiFi and goat cheese included.

    What a wonderful experience, Debra made us feel right at home with a warm welcome! We choose…read moreElkhorn for our honeymoon, and we sure were not let down, as we got to bottle feed baby goats and got to ride her beautiful horses!
