    We rented the outdoor fire pits for a happy hour family group in January. It was snowing lightly. We dressed in layers and were fortunate the weather was just cold and not windy. The server was super attentive to us, walking through some slippery snow to serve us our drinks. The fire pits overlook the lake, but the snow washed out the view a bit. It was a really “cool” thing to do and we plan on booking the fire pits again next year. I would recommend the fire pits for a happy hour followed by dinner in the hotel.

    We discovered this restaurant last year and made a reservation for Thanksgiving dinner. It exceeded our expectations. We were so happy & satisfied with the food, service, price & ambience that we decided to do our holiday dinner there every year. This year we went for Christmas dinner & once again, they met our expectations in every category. Charlie's Bar & kitchen is our new tradition!
