THE place to be on the lake in the summer. Come in your bathing suit or your 3 piece suit. All are welcome and the massive patio can seat 300+ sun soaked bodies who want some pub food and a beer in-between water skiing runs. Excellent views of the lake, loads of parking for your boat, and superb people watching, this place is not to be missed. Live entertainment is often available on the weekends.

Accessible only by boat, but well worth the experience, Big Island is where everyone heads on a sunny summer day to anchor their boats and stand on the sandbar to party with the locals. This isn't for the faint of heart or small children. This is a party scene known for those looking to drink the day away with friends (and strangers). Perhaps the best people watching in the state is located here. If you are looking for a daytime party on a weekend in the summer, look no further. Hundreds of boats anchor here each weekend as thousands of people party to the music booming from the boats that are tied up to one another.
