Overview

At a Glance

Best For
Romantic dinners Special occasions Golf club dining
Vibe
High-end lodge atmosphere Romantic setting by a fireplace Golf course views Casual attire accepted

The Order Strategy

Skip the sliders; get Prime Rib. For drinks, Glacier Cocktail; for wine, choose a bold red to pair with steak.

The Vibe Check

Upscale lodge dining with fireplace ambience and golf-course vistas; not a laptop-friendly, date-night friendly spot.

The Crowd Factor

Weekend dinners are the busiest; arrive early or reserve to avoid delays

Eat Here If / Skip If

EAT HERE IF: you want polished lodge dining after a round on the course. SKIP IF: you’re budget-restricted or chasing a lakefront casual scene.

What Makes It Special

Refined lodge dining at a golf club with Montana regional specialties

Must-Try Items

Signature Dishes: Prime Rib; King Crab Legs; Montana Bison Steak; Huckleberry Cheesecake; Best steak sandwich

Prime Rib, King Crab Legs, Montana Bison Steak, Huckleberry Cheesecake

Best Time to Visit

Mid-week dinners are calmer; reservations are highly recommended to lock a table by the fireplace with golf-course views.

Tips & Advice

  • Reserve for dinner; weekends fill up fast.
  • Sit in the dining room or deck for golf-course views.
  • Inform your server about gluten-free needs.
  • Arrive by 6:00 PM to beat peak seating.

Skip If

Budget travelers; lake-view seekers; diners seeking a casual lakeside vibe

Family Info

Kids menu with Burger Sliders and Chicken Strips; multiple dining areas including deck and lounge

What Diners Say

Prime Rib and King Crab legs anchor the menu; Montana Bison Steak delivers outdoorsy depth; portions can be generous, but value varies with timing and night.
