Lakeside Bar & Grill

Cradle Country & The West


Enjoy your meal or drink on the grassed terrace or around the wood stove in the tentlike dining room at Tullah's best eating option. Lunch is a simple affair, with soup, pies and toasted sandwiches on offer. Dinner choices include steaks, ribs and grilled salmon. The oversized outdoor chess set is a draw, as is the magnificent view of the lake and forest.
