A Family-Operated Business
Over 50 years ago Bo and Margaret Williams bought a piece
of property overlooking the majestic mountains and the new
lake where they dreamed of building a future. In 1955 he built
the café, but it was ten years later and after he built the
lodge that the family was able to move to the valley
permanently. In 1969 the café burned to the ground. A year
later Bo added a kitchen to the to the lodge lobby to make a
new dining room. Several years later the dining
room was expanded and the saloon was added. Bo loved a
party and Margaret enjoyed entertaining.
The children, Pat, Pam & Wes were raised in an
atmosphere to offer hospitality and service at early ages.
In 1991 Pam and her family took over the operations of
running the restaurant and the lodge. Her children Joey and
John, were raised in an atmosphere to offer hospitality and
service at early ages. Bo passed away in 2002, but Margaret is
often in the dining room greeting guests. Wes and his family
and Pat are also frequently offering their services when they
are “home“. On many evenings 3 generations of the family
are working in the dining room to offer excellent food,
hospitality & service.
