A ritzy waterside retreat where golf, food, and views rule. Book private kayaking sessions for lazy-day workouts; check in during weekend holidays for fireworks and cookouts on the lake.

Beer barrel and chalkboard specials balance out floating glass walls and slick midtown decor. Take a meal on the busy city-front patio or hop upstairs for skyline views and a gastropub menu that warrants more than a Pabst.
