Bar/Restaurant - Grill

The Gardens is family friendly all day until 9 pm when it turns into a 21 and over bar. Inside there are pool tables, dart boards, and oftentimes live music. The Gardens boasts the cutest waitresses on the lake. The new menu includes a variety of burgers as well as healthier options such as delicious salads, fruit platters, and wraps. At night the bar is the perfect location for your bachelorette outing. Best of all, you don't have to drive. Come in your boat, and come as you are!

Paid a cover charge for a totally stoned singer that couldn‘t make it thru one verse without starting over 3 times! Smells bad and the Bartenders are very Rude!

The Gardens has gone way down hill since ownership/management changed hands. The music is awful, the staff is Slow and the owners are Tools! We miss the old staff & bartenders. Also, it smells like a foot.

Not a fun place-slow service, cranky waitresses, and uptight crowd. Skip this place and go to Barefoot Bar instead!!

Best bar in the lakes! Staff is always friendly and a ton of fun.

This place is amazing with a GREAT new owner, AMAZING food, FANTASTIC staff, and SUPERB music which makes this the best bar in the area of Arnolds Park. Where else can you sit outside or inside by the windows right on West Okoboji lake and watch the sunset...NO WHERE!! I would recommend this to everyone I know and to those who waited for staff to seat them...Its a bar you are suppose to seat yourself.
