Cool pit stop for tourist to check out. Our experience was great. Stopped by more than once while…read morewe were around. THE BUGS THOUGH! Not sure if it was a one time thing or a season thing but I do NOT recommend outside sitting after sundown. My wife and I got SWARMED by these little green bugs ( obviously from the River ) the server didn't care too much about how bothering it was to have 10+ bugs on our food. Eventually we had to be asked to be moved in and thankfully we were. Funny part is that shortly after us, about 7-8 other tables from outside also moved in because of the bugs hahaha. Not a bad enough experience to hate the place IMO but should be taken better care of. Maybe a net around the dinning area could solve the issue idk

They have a really nice outside patio overlooking the river. It was a little chilly but they had a…read morelot of heaters. I had the Patty melt and upgraded to onion rings. The onion rings were really good. Crispy but not greasy. The patty melt was ok. The burger was great. The flavors were there. The bread was lightly grilled I guess. The bread was white bread and still soft which I thought was odd. I'm not sure if that's how they are usually made. I was disappointed. Service was good.

My son, my mother and I recently stayed at the Gateway Lodge. It was cute and more importantly it…read morewas clean. It had all the amenities we needed. There was a balcony outside and we were right on the river. We thoroughly enjoyed just sitting and watching the river spill over the boulders, it was amazing and even the sound was beautiful . We left the windows open so we could hear the sound of the rushing water as we fell asleep. We ate three meals at the restaurant There were three of us so nine meals total and everything was delicious. Entire staff was so sweet. My mother and I are in walkers and there were a few stairs, but they were set up where we were able to make it up and down easily . staff was so friendly offering assistance at every. FIVE STAR FOOD! FIVE STAR SUITE!

After a multi hour road trip, my friend and I Denise got here. It was the last intentional spot in…read moreour day. But there was something we had not considered, we were going to be going to a place that required us to be fresh and ready to receive the wonder of place by a lack and we only had the energy for an angry stop at a gas station. So this place I visited when I was tired and that kind of gunked up the experience. If I would have gone with more energy to fully open my eyes than this experience would have been wondrous. When I booked the reservation I did it because it was a place by a lake. I enjoy water front dining and I usually use an ocean for scenery and today I was in a place where I could use a large creek. And since I was not going with any specific expectations that lake hit me like a bucket of wow. I remember like seeing the mouth of the lake going down like actual rocks. Like I was seeing the waters that people raft on with commitment to the outdoors. It felt like I had traveled into a place where trees were purest, bird melodies were the only noise in town (besides the water running in the creek), and cabins belonged to those who called the mountains home. I was in a novel and for some reason I felt like it was written by Twain. And that is really what I can say about this place. That is mostly what I remember the beauty of the creek. I wanted to spend more time there, I could have walked it, they had like a lounge but I did not. But I do remember the forested view that went on, and the roaring, jagged leg being a central character other than that I have small things to say. I remember the salad being ok. Denise and I shared a dish, I can't remember why but we did not eat the whole thing. It was inherently bad. But this could have been an off night, or just not the dish of the place, and really you go here for the lake, and the food was great in some ways just not in this specific way. I went to this place a few weeks ago, and, if I had not make it clear I remember the experience of being with the lake. So go here for that experience and let the rest just fall into place.

Buyer beware. This business does not post their cancellation policy anywhere on their website or in…read moretheir terms and conditions. However, upon booking you will get an email that your deposit in nonrefundable. I attempted to cancel 3 weeks later, I am a first responder and was supporting a fire emergency, and was told no. Note, this was still 2 full months ahead of the trip, not a last minute cancellation. I'm disappointed at their dishonest business practices. This all could have been avoided if they were up front about their cancellation policy instead of just dropping it on you after you've already made a deposit.
