Few things can be as romantic as dining on a river in an elegant restaurant, and although The Oar House is not a converted boat, it is an old house that has been transformed into a lovely place offering spectacular views of the Chestatee River in Dahlonega. The sun drenched deck is by far the most popular seating option amongst guests and dining pleasure increases by many folds when the atmosphere is so perfect.

The menu features appetizers such as baked crab stuffed oysters or grilled chicken and cheese quesadilla served with guacamole, salsa and sour cream. Salads are inspiring choices while lunch could consist of pastas, sandwiches and burgers with tantalizing fillings.

If you're on the lookout for a proper meal, then don't miss the bourbon marinated pork chops, New Zealand rack of lamb or something from the numerous fish selection. For dessert, the key lime pie is refreshing and the wine list is a compilation of most New World favorites.
