Do you have a restaurant onsite?
Do you have a restaurant onsite?

The beauty of the WHYC is that we do not have a restaurant. Why is that great? You can bring in your own meals to cook on our Weber grills or in the kitchen, or bring in any type of takeout.


We do have our Canoe Bar which is open on Fridays and Saturdays from April through October.
