Cool place to hang out. You can rent pontoons, gondolas, paddle boards and Kayaks.

Nowhere near as good now that they changed owners and menu / theme. Bring back the old Decoy Restaurant!

It's no longer there. We had to go downstairs and eat at the new restaurant and order our food like we were at Sizzler.

Recently taken over by 2 italians and offering more a cucina fare which has risen to the fabulous view one has at this location of the lake. Prompt, making an effort, and more honest pricing has helped this locale.

We live at the lake and everything is great about Decoy and that includes the service but our butternut squash soup came out cool and not hot or even warm. The waiter brought two new soups out and they were warmish but not hot. We aren't picky but it's much better tasting when hot.The other issue we had was the air-conditioning was blowing from the vent to the table and bouncing off the glass window onto us and our food. This is corrected by us not sitting there in future. We will go back but lunch was somewhat disappointing.Update, had breakfast here yesterday and it was good and service was good. Historically, for whatever reason, the service is slow here but if you talk with your waiter or waitress and let them know you need more attentive service, then it's corrected. Morning is nice and quiet and peaceful with beautiful views.Ate at dockside today and it was good. Because of covid19 the rules have changed but was great sitting outside to eat. Decoy, the upstairs restaurant won't open back up for a few weeks they said but this was really nice.

Horrible experience with reopened. Two guys at bar are great but red head woman is rude and might even be a little racist. I observed her let all white men anywhere at the bar. But when a black girl came she rudely instructed her to leave and said she had to be 6 feet apart. I am staying here at the hotel and watch her be snipping throughout my entire stay. I would absolutely not return. It cost nothing to be friendly and nice!
