My friends enjoyed chicken quesadillas that were full of good ingredients and looked delicious. I enjoyed chicken tenders with a spicy garlic parmesan dipping sauce. Everything was served quickly by a very pleasant waitress. The owner came to check on our meals once we were served. I would recommend stopping here the next time you travel to Patoka Lake. Dock-side service is also an option! There is also an extensive beer menu, wine slushies, and other cocktail choices available.

Do not rent boats from this place. We got scammed! Website claimed to have "luxury" pontoon for…read morerent. I took the bait as my whole family was coming in for Labor Day weekend. $300 for one day, non refundable. Let me say not only was I disappointed, I was totally embarrassed to show this boat to my family. Seats with major damage and taped with duct tape. Dirty seats, nasty carpets. A real luxury boat! Further, upon returning the boat they claimed we ruined the prop (we did not). Another $300 ! In trying to negotiate with the manager and the owner, both proceeded to yell at me because I questioned both the condition of the boat and this "ruined" prop. I'm angry but have no recourse. Do not do business with these folks.you WILL regret it. I wish I could post pictures of this boat...a real disaster!

If you're looking for a "somewhat" inexpensive boat rental on Lake Patoka, choose someplace else…read more When we first arrived, they told us the boat we paid for wasn't working and had "upgraded" us to a more expensive one. This "upgraded" one was more expensive solely for the fishing gear on board - which we did not want. This "new" boat was dilapidated, rickety, and not safe. The boat bimini had holes in the top and was literally tied to the roof of the boat, not secured with poles or anything stable. When we asked if we could get a different boat, they said they only had more expensive options which we would have to pay the difference of ($150). Didn't seem fair considering our first boat that we had paid for in advance now wasn't available. The staff was not accommodating and told us we had to call the owner and wait for them to respond. When we called, no one answered and there was also no cell service. Ended up paying the difference for a "semi-better" looking boat that had a cinder block as an anchor... Drifted around the entire time on the lake, a cinder block should not be used to tie down a two story pontoon boat with a slide, didn't work. Over all, would not return.

Historical our biggest complaint has been the long wait time when at the dock to pick up our boat. This year we were greeted with a newly paved lot and a staff that was on top of it! Got all the paperwork signed, boat inspection and out in maybe 15 minutes. Staff was pleasant to deal with and really made us feel welcome. Couldn't be happier.
