Bitter Lake Lodge Campground

4.4* (out of 5) Food: 4* Atmosphere: 4* Value: 5* Service: 4* Would I go back / Recommend?: 5* (Definitely) Total check/person: $18 07/13/2025 We were looking for a place to stop for brunch after Mass in Webster on our way back home to Des Moines and my in-laws suggested Bitter Lake Lodge's buffet. The building has a modern steel exterior and a modern hunting cabin like interior with a concrete floor (see pictures). Service was prompt and there was a reasonable selection on the buffet line (scrambled eggs, scrambled eggs with veggies and cheese, bacon, sausages, potatoes, biscuits & gravy, pancakes and french toast sticks). The scrambled eggs were very good and the potatoes were good, but they were out after we went through and were not replenished. The sausages were plent

We were up from Kansas last weekend and had the best time ever, fishing wasn't bad either! The food was great but most important, the service was truly outstanding, from the manager, the waitresses we had, and the bartender! We all felt very welcome and met some good folks. Keep up the great work, we will be back!!

All three times I have been service takes over an hour to get food. Two times leaving before being served. Tonight we arrived at 8:20 took 15 minutes to get ordered and food has not arrived even at 9:31. Server was seen sitting at the table next to us just visiting.

Great food and drinks.

Great service. Excellent people to help with fishing advice. Great fishing.
