Fun bar with great cocktails and a welcoming atmosphere. Peppermill Fireside Lounge became our group's unofficial headquarters for the trip. Bartenders remembered our names by day two.

Peppermill Fireside Lounge is the perfect place to unwind after 18 holes. Good drink selection, comfortable seating, and a lively but not overwhelming vibe. The group loved it.
