This is a beautiful little restaurant about 5km from our house. It is in a lovely yellow house on a hill near Peddar Bay, and Matheson Lake Road. Closed on Tuesday and Wednesday but well worth the visit for the fantastic local food. On warm days, I recommend sitting out on the porch!

A wonderful place to swim in the summer. Follow the trail all the way around the lake to find secret rocks to stretch out on. The beach is a good place to wade in as it is shallow and warm. Dogs are welcome everywhere (except the beach area from June to October.)
