The Lake House on Pistakee has hands down one of the best steak sandwiches around. It is always cooked to perfection and has a great taste.

Love the Wedge...a staple that made it to the menu. Grilled Shrimp w/ Bang Bang sauce. Perfectly sated. My view from the deck!

Easily one of our favorite spots on the chain. Service is always friendly, food is good, and the vibe is always peaceful and laid back. Love that we can get there on the boat or golf carts!
