Restaurants near Garrison

“The Spotlight in Garrison with panoramic views and an amazing breakfast menu should be on your must do list. The caramel pecan roll is insane. I’m a little bit low-carb and that one’s always worth the carbs.”

“The course is very nice and I liked how much variety there was in the different holes with the altitude differences. The greens tees and fairways were also well kept. I was happy to be able to use my youth on course here. The staff was very nice and understanding and their food and drink in the pro shop was not over priced. Overall I was very happy with this course.”

“A must do when in Garrison. Great staff that hustle, wonderful people, cheap drinks with good variety of spendy fancy tequilas/bourbon/vodka/beer, fabulous meat raffle, fantastic view. We love the homemade pizza so much. If you like gambling, they’ve got plenty of it. Do The Harbor Inn!”

“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 The website was also out of date, with no notice about the pool closures or the restaurant being closed.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.”

“Just a nice place to hang out.”

“We enjoyed date night & a delicious dinner at White Oak Grill (Ruttger’s Bay Lake Resort) tonight 😊 House exclusive Devil’s Washboard beer, Asiago Stuffed Gnocchi, White Cheddar Cheese Curds, Braised Beef Short Ribs, White Oak Wagyu Burger (with Onion marmolade), and a Blueberry Lemon Bread Pudding 👏 We will be back 😁”

“Went for our Anniversary dinner. I ordered the walleye dinner - pan fried as recommended by our waitress. Husband ordered the prime rib melt. Both were soooo good ! Wish I would have taken pictures. Nancy was our server and she was nothing short of amazing! She was great on all levels. Would highly recommend!”

“Very good service provided today at this restaurant located inside Grand Casino Hotel. Nice selection of food. I chose the Prime Rib special today that came with baked potato, carrots and aujus. It was very delicious and cooked just perfect. All in all, a very great visit!”
