GREAT food! Delicious burgers and exceptional quesadillas. Seating is lakeside or indoors. Very casual, pub-like and friendly. Known for the very LARGE turtle named, Franklin, who lives under the dock :)

Within walking distance of the lake house. You can grab a bite to eat, but it's more of a bar atmosphere.

A Canaan classic is back with Chef Gary Knight preparing fantastic nightly specials as well as great items off of their menu. Enjoy casual dinning lake side. Live Weekend Entertainment.

The restaurant side is also very good with a view of the lake, but there are other places to eat. As far as a bar and nightlife, this is the one place in our tiny neck of the woods!
