What an hidden treat this is! The grounds leading up to the cookhouse are just beautiful. Seeing the lady slippers blooming was stunning. Mikaela was our server. She seemed a little shy at first but once we started to joke with her she was awesome. We all loved our food. The dinner rolls were so good that my husband needed to order more. Having the desert menu on the table makes you want that as your hungry when you get there. We ordered the toffee peach cobbler, that was so good! We will be back as there are so many items on the menu we want to try!

We had a wonderful time. Our group of 4 each ordered a different meal; every meal was fantastic. Cooked to perfection. The unique cocktails and desserts were fun. A highlight for me was the smoked red wine. Thank you for a great experience, can’t wait to go back.

Huge fan of Jack Pines Cookhouse, the owners, managers, and staff! I love trying a new entree and Sunday brunches are my favorite. I love the variety of food and how the team members work to connect with guests. Wait times may be a bit longer periodically, but it’s worth the wait for quality and unique meals!

So bad, it’s really sad. The food on the brunch buffet was cold and uncooked (raw hash browns) despite arriving when the place opened. The guy trying to make omelets either didn’t have the right pans or didn’t know how to make them… so scrambled. The line comes to a grinding halt with everyone trapped in a corner waiting for waffles or eggs after their plates are filled from the line. Cold food if you wanted either. Only syrup was from a bottle that poured so slowly that it wasn’t worth the wait and the butter was rock hard. The “coffee cake” was tasteless and dry. The dessert bars were stale and too hard to bite into. Beverages are 100% self serve with juice from small cans and barely warm coffee. No sneeze guards to prevent spread of germs.

Pros: It is quaint and looks nice outside. The warm bread and seasoned butters were very good.

Have no complaints about the Cookhouse. We each had a different dinner and every one of us where very expressed with the dishes. The menu is different than you will find in the area and they take pride in the food. The General manager/Head Cook came and checked on us and the food as well. They have options for everyone. If you don’t want a big dinner they have burgers and sandwiches as well. Excited to come back and give a different dish a try!

I really wanted to love this place. My family and I stayed at the jack pines resort following a funeral for my grandmother. While the rest of the family went to the rodeo I was excited to treat myself to my favorite,game meat, despite the high cost. I decided to go big and after much internal debate about the price went for the elk chop, wild rice pilaf and salad (most expensive on the menu at $40+). I should have known better when they said it would be 45 min. I showed up after 30 min and my food wasn’t done which wasn’t a big deal I just didn’t want it to wait in the window. The walk back to my cabin was less than 5 min. The salad was first which consisted of all spinach with 2 tomatoes and a handful of onions. My chop was tiny probably about 4 oz (the menu didn’t specify sizes) and extremely overdone. There wasn’t any pink and it tasted extremely gamey (my favorite meat is venison so I expected some gaminess). It was rolled in coffee grounds and suppose to have blueberry compote. The coffee made the already gamey meat extremely bitter and the blueberry compote was almost non-existent. The vegetables were okay but the ricepilaf was horrid and dry, basically inedible. After debating I called the restaurant to ask about the temp of which they cook the elk and that mine was extremely well-done and dry. The answer I got was “grilled to perfectIon” and offered to remake it. They tried to say that if it sat it might have continued to cook but I was there before it was ready and it didn’t even have a chance to rest. When I went to pick up my new chop they made sure to just include the chop. Not a big deal except they took my old to go back which had the veg and rice pilaf. I told the wait staff that and they offered to let my take the veg and rice pilaf back but at that point theu were extremely cold and the doors were locked and they were handing me my food out the door and I had my hands full with my 2 year old. The new chop was cooked to a perfect med rare and I scarfed it down as I was starving at that point. Even then it was just okay, def not worth the price tag. I was extremely disappointed and still hungry and would have been happier with even fast food!!! Would not recommend and would not return
