Rafter's Restaurant at Deer Creek Lodge is a cozy and comfortable restaurant with a beautiful view of the lake. The staff is noted for their friendliness and attentiveness, making customers feel welcome. While some dishes like the mesquite lime chicken sandwich or smoked turkey parm sandwich have had inconsistencies, recent reviews highlight delicious options such as the large salad with blue cheese, cranberries, and grilled chicken, as well as the perfectly cooked New York strip and flavorful pasta.
The kitchen is well-staffed, but occasional long waits may occur due to server shortages, especially on busy days. Despite this, the team remains sweet and hospitable. The small menu isn’t available online, which can make planning difficult, but the welcoming atmosphere, comfortable seating, and stunning views continue to be standout features. For future improvements, updating the menu online and refining food consistency could further enhance the dining experience.
