The restaurant is absolutely fantastic. The rest of the resort follows suit and the staff are simply amazing. Their interest in what you want and need is genuine and heartfelt. Sure there are days where it might be a.lityle different but as a while every person on staff expresses genuine interest and desire to please the guests. From excellent food to great advice of local areas and even other restaurants to explore and visit. Not only is this place a welcome place for visitors to the area but great for locals as well. A must visit, because once you have you too will become a regular visitor.

Great staff but be careful when using their wifi. I asked to use a phone to contact my friends, due to having no signal on my phone. They said i could use the wifi "HUGE CHANCE YOUR PHONE WILL GET HACKED!" unless you have wifi protection or a VPN. I started getting random text messages, like being added to a group message and I had no idea who these people were.

Amanda is the rudest waitress of all times unless you’re a man?! She brought out cold food/coffee which was super weak, never offered refills, never brought out ketchup or syrup, told her our utensils were dirty while trying to hand them to her but she refused to take them so tossed them off to side of table, never asked how food was, and talked about my family to another waitress in front of us with while having her back turned as other waitress turned around towards us while looking at us. Complained to owner who comped entire ticket and apologized. Pray it comes from Amanda’s paycheck which is not much to begin with. No wonder she hates her job, she sucks at it! Millers point is 100% better. Don’t waste your time on poor service and food. Atmosphere outside is road view.

We've been regulars at The Forks Resort in Bass Lake for several summers now, and it truly never disappoints! There's a special charm that keeps us coming back, you truly get to relax while taking in the natural beauty of the surroundings. We absolutely love our cabins with their beautiful water views, and the convenient location means it's just a short stroll down to the restaurant and boat docks. Speaking of boats, we always rent one to soak up all the fun Bass Lake has to offer, and The Forks staff makes the whole process easy, stress-free, and enjoyable. Their boats are always clean and easy to operate. The Forks restaurant is another highlight, with a fantastic menu that has something for everyone in our group (including excellent gluten-free options—the salads are particularly great). If you're looking for a beautiful and charming lake getaway, we highly recommend The Forks Resort at Bass Lake. It's truly a gem!

Excellent food, not too far away. We were able to dock our rented pontoon boat and walk right up to the restaurant... Very convenient! Staff was great, friendly, and funny. Good was excellent. My son's chicken fried steak was HUGE!

The food is good, but you may have a hard time enjoying it if you're a part of the LGBTQ community and you may not be welcome here. Our waitress was incredibly rude and stand-offish toward myself and my friend. We were pleasant and patient, but she refused to make eye contact with us, loudly exhaled everytime she walked by while making sure to look the other direction, and acted like she could hardly stand near our table long enough to take our order. (And even had a busser or other staff member bring us our drinks and take care of our check). Sometimes people have bad days, but she was obviously kind, pleasant, and a decent person to all of the surrounding tables (checking in on them, making small talk, etc) while making it clear that she did not want to be within 10 feet of us. Not a welcoming experience at a restaurant I've been coming to since I was a small child.

BEST BURGERS IN A 30 MILE RADIUS! Wonderful service and a warm environment! When the forks is open, there is no where else I'd rather eat!!! ♡♡♡♡

Still the best burgers ever..... we showed up late, right before closing, so we had to get our food "to-go". Its been a few years since we've been and it looks like they've added an outdoor seating area, with a view of the lake. Some of the dock has been renovated too. They added a nice seating area and access is easy from the restaurant. The service is what it is, you don't go to a small lake town burger joint and expect stellar service. We got what we expected.... They forgot the fries on our to-go order, but we were really there for the burgers, so it didn't matter. Burgers are the main attraction, its a homemade burger, with a perfect cook. Great for after lake activities, and in-between spots. If you haven't had one, it is 100% worth the effort. A great view, coupled with a great burger makes for some cherished memories.

I LOVE the Forks! I'm there a couple times a week and can't have my forks burger without the chocolate malt milkshake, the best! Love the breakfast, it's my favorite thing to do on the weekends. Thank you Forks family for always providing the best service and food for this girl!

I've probably been going in the last 20 years to the forks. This time I was super amazed because they've hired younger people and they were so polite and so friendly. I'm amazed by the hospitality. I will be back again and the milkshake. And the sandwich, the tuna Patti melt. Oh my goodness, it was perfect as always.

Bass Lake is probably one of the most beautiful lakes I've been to.. Clean water, lake front homes and marinas with the pines and mountains in all its natural beauty will take your breath away. Hosts are welcoming and happy.. Campsites are a bit small but definitely doable. Gets pretty hot in the summer months so if you don't have some sort of watercraft you might want to rent something. No showers at Forks, but for $4/5min you can use the public showers up the road at Miller's Landing. Bathrooms are clean and well kept.
