Being out hiking in the woods enjoying the scenery with her beloved dogs is another favorite hobby, and also checking out the Pokemon Go scene in whatever city she happens to be in at any given time (coffee and dog leash in hand).

One of the best things about a warm weather day is enjoying a meal outdoors. Some love to picnic in a park, but others prefer meals spent by the water, either at a restaurant with an outdoor deck or simply windows from which you can dine and enjoy the view. We may not have any oceans in the Sunflower State, but that doesn’t mean we don’t have plenty of places to enjoy the water in Kansas… which, of course, means lots of waterfront restaurants to enjoy. Here are a few of our favorites:
The Lovewell Grill and Marina is in Webber, KS right on Lovewell Reservoir. Whether you have your own boat or opt to rent one here, you'll have a wonderful time at this restaurant/marina. Live music and a friendly atmosphere make this a perfect place to enjoy a meal.
The menu serves up pizza, breakfast, sandwiches, hot dogs, and tasty BBQ. It's a delightful spot for a casual meal. For more information or to check out a menu, visit the Lovewell Marina website.
The Cove is located at the amazing Acorns Resort in Milford. This is one of the top-rated resorts in Kansas. Nestled right along beautiful Milford Lake, the resort is an incredible place for a getaway, and the restaurant here is just as delicious as you'd expect.

The restaurant has tacos, burgers, bar food, and more, with a great variety for everyone to enjoy. For more information or to see the full menu, check out the Acorns Resort website.
Not only is High Tide 21 located right on beautiful Lake Perry, it's also got its own pool, making it one of our favorite summer restaurants in Kansas While the restaurant is suitable for all ages, the pool has a swim-up bar and is only available for those over the age of 21. Don't fret, though: there's a splash pad open for the kiddos!
High Tide 21, 10772 Perry Park Dr, Perry, KS 66073, USA
The menu has a wide variety of seafood and American eats, with options for everyone. Events are held frequently, with tons of parties, concerts, and more. Learn more at the High Tide 21 website.
Last but not least on our list of waterfront restaurants in Kansas is Lago Vista Grill in Ozawkie. It's technically a few minutes' walk to reach Perry Lake, but the fun atmosphere you'd expect from a lakefront restaurant is definitely here.
Lago Vista Grill, 102 Main St #4089, Ozawkie, KS 66070, USA
This Mexican restaurant has a delicious menu and plenty of outdoor seating for a warm day. It's a great casual spot for a meal. To learn more or check out the full menu, visit the Lago Vista Grill website.
