The Pavilion at Dows Lake is a mixed bag of reviews, with some customers enjoying the beautiful location and lakeside activities such as paddle boat rentals, canoeing, and kayaking. However, many found the dining options lacking and overpriced, with some noting the need for a serious renovation of the building. Despite this, the restaurant itself received praise for delicious food, prompt service, and great views of Dows Lake. Customers visiting during special events like the Tulip Festival had a pleasant experience.Overall, the Pavilion offers a convenient spot to enjoy the lake with room for improvement in terms of dining options and customer service.
