The Sandbar

11/09/2026

Saturday September 12 UPDATE:

We’re keeping summer going a little longer this year. For the first time ever, the Sandbar will be out past Labor Day!

We’ll be back at Gilligan’s Island tomorrow around 11. The rest of us will be at the Ridgewood on the River seasonal site open house, which means Adam is officially a one-man Sandbar crew for the day.

The kitchen will be closed, but the bar will be open and Adam will be shaking cocktails all day. Legend has it he’s never cracked 1,000 cocktails in a single shift, but we think tomorrow could finally be the day.

It’s looking like a beautiful Saturday. Come out and help Adam chase history!

Thanks to everyone who came out Saturday and Sunday! We had a great couple of days at Gilligan’s and you guys pretty much cleaned us out, so we decided to call it for today.

Next Saturday our crew will be hosting the Ridgewood on the River 2027 Seasonal Site Open House at The Lake House Beach Club.

Normally Labor Day is the end of our Sandbar season, but we’re going to play it by ear this year. If we get another nice weekend, we’d love to get back out there. Just keep an eye on our page and we’ll let you know!

Thanks again for a great summer!

After you’re off the water this evening, stop over to The Lake House Beach Club! The wedding reception is open to the public, with live music, a DJ, and a chance to help celebrate the newlyweds.

Thanks for understanding, and we’ll see you back on the river soon!

Love is in the air at The Lake House this Saturday.

This weekend we’re honored to host a beautiful wedding celebration beginning with a private ceremony along the Wisconsin River before continuing the festivities at The Lake House.

While the ceremony is private, The Lake House will remain open to the public throughout the day. Stop by, enjoy a drink, and celebrate alongside one of the happiest days of the summer.

This wedding also marks the beginning of an exciting new chapter as we continue exploring The Lake House as a destination for weddings, private events, and celebrations.

We can’t wait to share what’s ahead.
