Lake Area Eateries
These are places Paulette and Norm frequent.
DINNER: No music, no nightlife...just really great food and an assortment of hand crafted beers available for inside and outside consumption. No reservations available and expect a 30-50 minute wait during the peak of dinner in the summer season. Grab a beer on their enclosed patio and join (or not) the great conversation. $$
