“Love this bar! They do have things like chips and frozen pizzas. However, they do allow you to order food into the bar. Great place to catch a Vikings game! We go here anytime we are in Crosby. Has a large outdoor section for seating and onsite beer and liquor sales, which carries whiskeys like Buffalo Trace!

Wheelchair accessibility: One level (street level) access.“

“This was a pit stop on our way up north and was the highlight of our trip. Deserves 6 stars! We arrived on a Friday afternoon and enjoyed sitting on the side patio with plenty of room. We both ordered the Reuben sandwich based on a recommendation from our server (who was very friendly and accommodating to my change in seating preferences) BEST REUBEN SANDWICH (dare I say best SANDWICH of my life). No joke. They make the sauerkraut and corned beef was tender but crisped after, butter fried marble rye melty Swiss cheese amazingness. Get the battered fries , they make the meal. This place was worth every penny. Perfection without the feeling it's trying so hard. Crosby is a cool and funky little oasis in the middle of seemingly nowhere.“

“Disappointing Start, Great Finish—Thanks to the Marina Crew! We were really looking forward to our stay at Ruttger’s Bay Lake Resort, especially since our kids were so excited to use the pools. Unfortunately, when we arrived, we were disappointed to find both pools closed—a fact that was never mentioned on the website or during booking. The website was also out of date, with no notice about the pool closures or the restaurant being closed. This lack of communication was a huge letdown for us and especially hard on our kids. After receiving a text that our room was ready, we checked in only to find the room still dirty. The staff did try to help by sending a manager intern, who found us another room, but that one was also dirty and needed cleaning. We ended up waiting an additional 30–45 minutes before we could finally get settled. Once we were finally in, we found the condo-style cabins to be cute and comfortable, with a nice deck and great views of the golf course and lake (though some big pine trees block part of the view). There’s plenty of parking, and the property has several docks for fishing and a large marina, which was a big hit with our family. However, due to pool construction, the trail to the marina dock was blocked, forcing us to take a much longer and less convenient route. We had fun fishing and caught some big sunfish off the main marina dock. The restaurant had a nice deck and a DJ, but closes pretty early and the food is quite pricey. The community fire pits are a great touch, with plenty of wood provided for guests to enjoy a classic evening of s’mores. As a gesture of goodwill for the pool closure, the resort offered us a two-hour pontoon rental, which was appreciated but didn’t fully make up for the disappointment and lack of communication. We tried to rent a fishing boat, but it had mechanical issues. The marina crew was super helpful and gave us a good deal on a full-day pontoon rental instead, which turned out to be the highlight of our trip. Big thanks to Rob and Casey at the marina—they were friendly, hardworking, and made our experience so much better. The kids had an absolute blast on the lake! We also enjoyed the ice cream shop and took out kayaks and other water toys, which were reasonably priced and lots of fun. At first, we weren’t sure if we would return or recommend Ruttger’s to others, but the marina crew truly turned things around for us and made the end of our trip memorable. I would recommend this resort to families and groups, but I really hope management improves communication, keeps the website updated, and ensures rooms are ready and clean for arriving guests. With a few improvements, this could be an amazing place for a family getaway.“
