The fish was overcooked and very bland, fries were WAY overcooked and cold. The servers (kids) were more interested in giggling and texting at the bar than doing their job.

The photos you see on the boat house was the beautiful view of the water well it fooled us. Instead of view of water it was full of boats in front of us. SMH. I don’t understand why there was only one waitress working, she was nice but we did not get no refill on water, took 2.5 hours wait for appetizers, poor portion on food, and full of disappointment. I wonder how did this place even got 4 stars?

Great place in Hayden lake to grab a bite to eat after boating or if you are near by. Only one plant based option ( Cowboy Caviar) and although it was tasty it was a bit acidic for my tongue. However the service was great with some of the nicest staff I have been around in a long time. Atmosphere is great with views of the dock/lake.I would go back with friends or family for the lake vibe.
