Sitting proudly on the northern Morse Lake shoreline between State road 31 and 37 is where you'll find downtown Cicero, a happy-go-lucky lake town. And where the Boathouse Kitchen & Swan Dive calls home.
Resting alongside the water’s edge, all you need to do to find us is look for the red, white and blue, listen for the sounds of neighbors and new friends as they gather, and let the scent of freshly prepared food draw you in.
We think this place is different and we hope you’ll think it’s different, too. The Boathouse Kitchen & Swan Dive values lake life, lake towns and lake food served with a humble heart. And we’re so grateful you found us.

    As always the Boathouse delivers in every way! Since remodeling the bar area the atmosphere and privacy of patrons is much appreciated! Our favorite is the Wednesday night “Music Bingo” always a great time!

    We came for brunch a few weeks ago and came back today because we loved it! The time, we shared the Dock 400 omelette and the Chicken & Waffles—both were delicious! We loved our server Becky! We’ll be back soon!

    Too loud for our tastes, so we ordered food to go. It was okay.

    The appetizers were great! My old fashion-esque Whisk-tea was amazing! (Especially after several!) The food was absolutely wonderful, and the live music was great. Cover bands are not always good(voice doesn't match the song etc) but these guys crushed it. Had a wonderful date night!

    The atmosphere is nice; however, the food has gone downhill in both quality and quantity within the last year.

    Such a beautiful night on the lake. We took our son, and grandson, had a great time. Service was very good, food was fine.

    Food is just Ok, but the ambience is great. Sitting overlooking the lake is wonderful. That must be why it is always so crowded.

    Love the atmosphere the live music was excellent! I love how the boathouse continues to evolve and find new ways to bring customers in and make their restaurant a fun and enjoyable experience. The views are incredible. If I had one critique, it might be a little more variety on the menu, but I’m not sure you can ask much more out of this restaurant. They are quite impressive for many reasons!!
