Lindey's Lakehouse

Lindey's Lakehouse sits right on the lake and has an amazing interior and exterior. Upon entering, it's as if you are boarding the deck and on an actual boat. The interior is rustic and boat-like, with seaside food from lobster rolls to fish and chips. A recommended drink is the classic margarita, which has components that taste like the ocean.

Alleycat Oyster Bar

Alleycat Oyster Bar has an amazing view of the lake and splits into two floors, and the bottom floor is the busiest, with bussers and people stepping onto the deck to catch a look at the water views, while the top floor has a live DJ.
