★★★★★ 5.0 Natalie Walters · Feb 2026

Had dinner on a Friday in February, it was great. We ordered Chicken tenders, fries, side salad (blue cheese dressing was good!), mashed potatoes and gravy, grilled cheese and biscuits with apple butter. Food was all delicious, server (Lisa) was excellent and juggled the tables well, and we genuinely have no complaints. Loved it. Plan on coming back for breakfast in the morning!

I would not recommend this restaurant at all. It unfortunately is the only option to eat if you are staying in the lodge, but sadly they completely missed the mark. We went for dinner and my husband and I ordered the PB and Bacon burger which was "a burnt hockey puck" on a bun. It was almost inedible. My son ordered the pot roast melt and said it was "OK". My daughter had a taco off the kids menu which looked pretty sad and not a lot of food. She also ordered fresh fruit which was mushy and clearly not "fresh". My son ordered the fish off the kids menu and it was the best out of all the meals but still slightly mushy and he said "very fishy". The meals were between $13-18 each and so not worth it! The waitress was nice but not very attentive and clearly not happy to be there. We stayed a f

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Kathi Davidson · Jul 2021

First night, we were impressed with the wait staff, but not so impressed with the food. The only redeeming item was the pork tenderloin. We had our dog with us and we were allowed to sit out on the patio, which was pretty neat. Second night, we had the meatloaf and burger. Both were delicious! Side items were pretty boring, but the real stars were the blackberry cobbler and iced tea. Both were delicious! Limited menu, but good specials and friendly staff. The wait times were short and food served hot. Prices are reasonable and all is clean!

Horrible service had to ask for our waitress twice never got refills grilled tenderloin was burnt dried out bitter and hard could not eat it was still charged for it management stood behind their "quality priduct" and was resistent to take it off the bill. Waitress sold my husband on the soup and salad bar with tomato soup his favorite and chicken rice but the soups were potato and bland chicken noodle. This was our 3rd time coming because we are locals but we will never come back. We were treated rudely because they burnt the food.

★☆☆☆☆ 1.0 Jennifer H · Dec 2025

Appalled at the lack of professionalism. Tony, who claimed to be the manager of the restaurant , was rude, disrespectful and lacks any kind of customer service skills. An inn full of guests were apparently not supposed to eat in the restaurant due to the snow. Multiple times in the attempts to check in for dinner and breakfast he huffed and puffed and literally said OH MY GOD about the amount of people expecting to eat while staying at the Inn. If a restaurant can not accommodate the patrons that are staying at the Inn, that’s probably an issue. We rented 9 rooms and spent $500 in the restaurant and were made to not feel the slightest bit welcome to dine while staying here. We have stayed in multiple state park Inns and have never experienced anything like this before. Never disappointed a
