This recreation area is part of Wappapello Lake
I loved my experience at Chaonia, everything was amazing! The owners are wonderful people and the food was great as well as the cabins. We will be revisiting soon, thank you.
Love! Love! Love! This place!! Cabins have all the amenities you need!! Cute and cozy!! The food at the restaurant is AMAZING!! The hand cut steaks and grilled shrimp is a must!! A great place for a weekend getaway or a night on the town!! Oh and specials on drinks and cabin rentals!! This was the jalapeno mango margarita!! Yummy!!
We stopped here to eat while boating with the family. Food was expensive for microwaved food. Inside the place was okay. We liked the Indian and eagle statues outside. The dock you have to walk up from the marina was questionable, Glad nobody got hurt on the rotted areas of the dock. We rented a pontoon for the day from another marina, glad we did!!
My family was camping near by for vacation. My husband had raved about this place for as long as we've been together, so figured we'd stop in and see what the fuss was about.
We were not AT ALL impressed. The prices were outrageous for what we received. The chips and queso? Stale chips, cheese sauce that was clumpy. The two steaks we ordered were about half edible! One was undercooked, one was overcooked and orange. The baked potatoes were wayyy undercooked. The shrimp had the blue markers on it. And isn't water supposed to be free when you order a beer and a margarita? What about a second beer?
If people are going to spend well over $150 bucks for a dinner, we expect more than subpar service and lackluster (at best) food that we can't even chew.
I had the best time going here for dinner. I live about a hour and half from here and it was well worth the drive. Had several friends come too and they enjoyed every minute of it, food was absolutely delicious. If you go the steaks are a must have. I normally don’t like steaks but after having it here I have changed my mind it was seasoned perfectly. The staff here are wonderful and friendly they also had live music playing which was really nice. There were fantastic views to look out on and enjoy while you where eating. If your staying at the lake or just wanting to try something new this is the place to go. Already planning my next trip down!!!!!!!!
