“This is the most favorite roast beef sandwich of our whole family. We are there so often the friendly staff knows our names. When our younger son and his family fly in from California, their first stop after leaving the airport is Lions Choice. We have their “ Bon Voyage” at Lions choice right before they fly back to California. We love this place. Always friendly. Always fast. Always delicious! Always a winner!“

“This was my very first time at The Boathouse Food & Deck and I’m honestly blown away! From the moment we arrived, the entire vibe was just incredible. The atmosphere is so inviting set right on the river, with gorgeous views that instantly put you in a good mood.
The food? Amazing. Every bite was delicious, fresh, and full of flavor you can really tell they care about what they serve. Add in the live music and it seriously made for the perfect night out. Great people, great energy, and just an all-around unforgettable experience.
If you’re looking for somewhere to relax, enjoy fantastic food, and soak in beautiful riverfront views with live entertainment, this is the spot. I can’t wait to come back!“
“I've always loved the fish here. The fact that it's local caught is what I like. Last time we were there I noticed on their sign it said farm raised catfish etc. I thought that was strange. But I also noted a little sign that was hanging below the menu board, "blue cat fritters". That's what I ordered thinking they have to be local wild caught. I went next door to the market and took some pics. Products of Vietnam, China, and Argentina. Talked to owner Debbie as she was cutting up onions. I told her I ordered the blue cat assuming it was local wild caught which she confirmed. Told her my lil Princess wouldn't eat dirty fish caught out of the river she wanted the farm raised until she saw where it came from. Then we got our fish. I took one piece of mine and one of hers and split them gave her half of each and I tried a piece of both as well. Her not knowing which was which and she immediately declared the blue cat was the better of the two hands down no comparison. I realize they have to cater to their customers wants. But dang it. I come here for local fresh river fish not Vietnam, China, or other countries crap. This is America and a country boy will survive, even if I have to start catching my own fish again.“
“We love Marquette Lodge. We go there a few times a year and adore the features such as the great room, cozy fireplace, and beautiful views. Unfortunately we’ve noticed some real negatives over the last few stays. The most recent was the worst. We came to dinner in the dining room and were seated by the hostess. After asking about drinks, we told by the hostess that there was no drink menu. Since we’d seen the menus before, we left our table and went up to the counter to retrieved some ourselves. Service was slow despite the fact there were only 6 other tables of guests. We immediately noticed that both the hostess and waitress seemed annoyed and inconvenienced, as they were very short and rude. We overheard the people at the next table saying the same thing. We ordered 2 meals including one burger, asking for no cheese. When it came out with cheese, we politely asked if we could have it replaced with a hamburger vs. a cheeseburger and were told by our waitress Malissa, “Can’t you just scrape it off?”. We politely said yes. We later asked for some mustard (asked both the waitress and hostess) and after 10 minutes of watching them either seated at a table or lingering behind the back bar, we once again went up to the front to find the condiments for ourselves. The next day, I was part of a stained glass class at the lodge which was absolutely lovely & enjoyable. For lunch were given vouchers and all dined together at a large, pre-reserved table in the dining room (there were about 10-12 of us). The food and service this time were both pretty good, thanks to a different set of staff. However, my classmates began sharing their disappointments of the dining experiences from they days before, saying that as soon as they walked into the restaurant the previous night, they felt unwelcome. They said they felt guilty for even being there, and at several points had to get up and retrieve their own menus, silverware, and condiments from behind the counter. It was as if all of us had the same experience with the same staff that weekend. Two of the women I met showed photos of the dirty bed linens they discovered when turning down their beds late after arrival on their first nights. One found a dirty black sock with a soiled fitted sheet in her cabin. Another said her lodge room sheets were full of hair when she arrived. All were told by the front desk that the lodge was full and they would have to stay in their respective rooms and nothing else could be done. My boyfriend and I noticed upon check-in to our rooms the first night that the thermostat was broken (it was 24 degrees outside and 58 degrees in the room). The TV remote wasn’t working right (the keys were all sticking) and we needed a pillowcase for one of the pillows. While we were first told that there may not be any fixing for the remote or additional linens to provide due to the lodge being full, they did eventually send a young man up to fix the thermostat, “jimmy” the remote, and give us a pillowcase. We were looking forward to spending time in the hot tub and suana especially on this trip, as during last year’s winter staycation the sauna wasn’t working. There was a leak/detachment in the hot tub liner at that time too. We were really disappointed to discover that, a year plus later, the sauna was still inoperable and the hot tub once again had a faulty liner. We love Marquette Park and Lodge. We ignore most of the grumblings about the place falling outdated, the bad service, and disrepair. In the past, we never come expecting the Ritz but this time we were so incredibly disappointed all-around. The property is such a treasure; it saddened us all to experience the apathetic staff and to see no real signs of motivation to maintain let alone improve the current facility. I know it’s a state park but we all hope someday someone somewhere can come in and reinvigorate the place. It really wouldn’t take much, as it’s beauty speaks for itself. None of us are expecting a 5 star resort, but some basic manners & sanitary, functioni“
“The woman working the window today just after 7 am MADE MY DAY. She was so friendly and laughing with me. She put me in such a good mood as I ordered my XL coffee to make it through my insane work week. I adore her and am so happy I was able to interact with her this morning. (Also so sorry I didn’t catch her name.) My drink and sandwich were delicious as usual!“

“Just had a business lunch with around 15 people. The service was great, and the food was good. Food came out quickly and they got all the orders right. Highly recommend Goodwood for your next business meeting or even company Holiday party.“

“Great food and service. Get you some of those awesome crispy hashbrowns.“
“Buyer beware... "buffalo wings" are not. They are fried chicken with breading & next to no meat. No buffalo sauce at all. Just like ordering KFC. Very disappointed. I only ate 30% because I picked all the breading off & no discount. Even after I expressed my disappointment.Just saving the next low carb person from making the same mistake I made.Other than that, great staff, very attentive and knowledgeable. Amazing service!!“
