We have all the ingredients necessary to delight your inner foodie. Chef Todd VanWieren has crafted the perfect seasonal menu brimming with locally sourced, sustainable ingredients-all paired with top wines and a seasonal handcrafted cocktail menu! Beautiful Gun Lake provides an incredible year-round atmosphere experience, thanks to the ever-changing seasons of West Michigan. Simple, really-it's just good food, good drink, with a view you can't beat.

**PLEASE NOTE**: during the warmer months, we do not accept reservations for our outdoor seating area, or for our Waterfront Room. They are seated on a first-come, first served basis. A reservation with us does not guarantee we will have a patio table or Waterfront Room table available for you upon arrival. We ask that you keep your party's visit to 2 hours or less when seated on our Patio. Requests will only be honored on a first come-first served basis.

    Everything was great! The food, drinks and dessert were all wonderful. We brought friends for their first visit and it was just the right place for visiting! It was a little busy - but that’s Friday night! Always a favorite for us.

    A busy holiday Friday night but our service was awesome. The walleye with corn risotto was so good. The restaurant was packed but our table of 6 could still carry a conversation. Overall, highly recommend!

    We go out to eat every Thanksgiving and usually Christmas and have been to many buffet type events. Bay Pointe was BY FAR the best. The reservation process was easy, we sat right at our designated time, food was amazing and the service was top notch. Everyone from the host, to the folks running food and our server seemed to really care about giving 100%

    The Thanksgiving buffet was superb. The atmosphere was classy but relaxed. It was our third year there for Thanksgiving and now it’s a tradition. Highly recommend.

    A nice glass of Riesling to start and a Smoky Old Fashioned with tasty Pumpkin simple syrup. My Perch dinner was just plain awesome! My wife had the Creamy Chicken and Andouille Pasta. I snuck a few forkfuls and this did not disappoint. The garlic and roasted tomatoes were complemented by the white wine cream and shallots. Full of flavor and deliciousness! I almost forgot that we started with the N’Orleans Shrimp n Grits, a flavor packed offering with Cajun dusted shrimp, andouille sausage, a white cheddar grit cake smothered in a roasted poblano cream and bacon peppered jam! I’m not the kind of guy to write about salads, but the goat cheese, cukes, almonds, roasted tomatoes and drop peppers made for a tasty start to dinner. We finished with Crème Brûlée, I mean, you can’t go wrong with vanilla bean custard and caramelized sugar! We both had coffee too! All in all, an amazing time. Noelle took great care of us! Fun atmosphere, and it’s easy to see why Bay Pointe is an award winning farm to table restaurant!

    We had a lovely Anniversary dinner. Food and staff were great. I didn’t realize is was a farm to table restaurant and that was a bonus.
