Local Shopping, Dining, and Hospitality Services

If you are looking for that specific gift, or a memento of your trip, the Lakeside Business District is a shopper's dream. From specialty gifts to clocks and antiques, you can choose from kites to clothing or a cycler's needs, find unique stationery and stickers, or rainy day games.

Whatever it is you are looking for or happen to stumble across, our business owners offer a unique shopping experience. Your mealtime choices cover a wide range of entrees and continents. Select award-winning pizza, traditional family favorites or popular cuisine. And of course, don't forget to finish with homemade pie or a scoop of your favorite of ice cream. Dine in a sports setting, a Victorian motif, on the shaded porch or in a view of the lake and sailing club.

The choice is yours to make and you just cannot go wrong, whatever you decide.

For your convenience, an ATM is located in the lobby of the Fountain Inn.
