Convenient if you have had a long day getting here. There are three dining areas and all overlook the lake and the surrounding mountains. Can catch a good sunset there. Favorite tables during warm weather are on the outside deck by the water. Many patrons arrive by boat.

It is an historic inn and restaurant. Twice destroyed by fire and faithfully rebuilt to reflect it's original style. In the 1930's it was frequented by Clark Gable and other movie stars. It's worth going just to check out the lobby. You can see Chimney Rock when dining on the outside deck. Great for a group or a romantic table for two sitting out on the deck.

Entertainment & Activities
The Beach by the lake is so beautiful. You can stretch out on this sandy beach, go swimming in the refreshing lake water, all the while surrounded by these gentle old mountains.
You can also experience the lake by boat! At the marina, you can rent a pontoon boat, a canoe or kayak. Or if not so adventurous, you can take a guided tour of the lake in a pontoon boat. It's fun to learn the history and interesting details of the lake.
Not far from the marina is the Flowering Bridge. Take a short stroll over this closed bridge and the gardener in you will fall in love. This has been a volunteer effort by the LL citizens. Once the new bridge was completed, they made a garden out of the old one.
