About

Restaurant
A longtime institution, the Sand Bar originally opened in 1994. We preserved the character that made it the legend it is while updating the menu with an extensive beer and wine selection, fresh cocktails, and simple yet perfect bar staples like crisp golden fries. It’s the casual hangout spot you crave after a long day on the lake. Pull up a chair under the famous hanging boat and let us take care of you.

    Great food and a wonderful view. Service has always been good. Great place for a relaxed bite to eat. Menue changes with the seasons but the seafood salad is really good.

    Extremely disappointed and honestly disgusted at the cleanliness of the Sandbar. Particularly the bathrooms. For such an upscale and pricey place, the bar was filthy, littered with dirty dishes, unwashed, and a clearly overwhelmed bartender. The women’s bathroom was probably the filthiest I have been in with every stall unflushed or overflowing with filthy waste, no toilet paper or towels, dirty floors and sinks. What has happened to this place?

    The time between ordering and being served was an hour and a 1/2. There was not more than 5 other diners for the first 45 minutes we were there. Atmosphere was bar trivia night. We thought we would miss it with an early reservation but we're wrong ( started at 7pm). On the plus side the food was excellent.

    We made a reservation to eat lunch at the sandbar at 1:45. We arrived a bit early and checked in with the host who advised us to wait for our table for a few minutes. After waiting over 20 minutes for our table and seeing multiple other groups get sat, we asked again and the host had forgotten that we had a reservation. He pointed us over to our table and did not walk us there. We had to wave him down after about 10 minutes of no one greeting us to get menus. It took another bit for our server to get over to us. She was friendly and took our order for two salads, a burger and a side of fries. We began to notice all of the other diners that had placed their orders after us (for very similar items) were receiving their food. Our server did apologize a few times for the wait and mentioned it was the larger parties which was understandable but frustrating considering those tables had already mostly finished eating at that point. After over an hour of waiting for our food, we finally received the meals. The food was mediocre considering the price point and fries were cold. They did bring us new fries after asking but overall we were not impressed with the food and were extremely underwhelmed with the service throughout the experience. The staff was receptive to our concerns which was appreciated and indicated that it was due to only working out of one kitchen - however it was not the experience we expected and definitely makes me hesitate to recommend this restaurant to other diners.
