Clean, comfortable and really welcoming

Make sure you pull over, stop and have a meal and a refreshing drink or two. The entertainment is something special. The managers Maire and Phil are very welcoming and the Italian Chef makes the best seafood chowder.

A good watering hole -

we called in a couple of times fro a mid-afternoon beer and snacks which was very pleasant. We also hired canoes which was good fun. The owner and staff were efficient and friendly.
