Multiple private dining rooms can cater for 12 to 30 people, making the venue suited for extended family or friend get togethers.
Or for something a bit more special, like a wedding, you can hire out the whole venue. Walk-ins are also welcome – no bookings necessary.
But why walk in when you can pull up in style via boat?
For foodie fanatics, the restaurant has just started a new low and slow American barbecue menu and experience.
Aptly named, Smoke, the carnivore’s dream is an additional experience to The Lake House menu and catering options, and features 12-hour smoked cuts of brisket, pork and beef ribs and Texas jerk chicken.
Smoke’s slow-cooked American barbecue menu has already proven so popular it is opening at a second location in Rolleston this February.
Overlooking the picturesque lake, The Lake House is a destination in itself or an idyllic stop while exploring central Canterbury. A courtesy shuttle bus can collect and drop off guests in Ashburton.
Book via the website, phone (03) 302 6064 or email info@lakehouselakehood.co.nz. Or if you’re more of the spontaneous type just pop on in.
