Best burgers around, especiallythe Corky Burger. Chili dogs with house made sauce are excellent. French fries always nice and crispy. Homemade root beer is the best there is. Just remember, cash only.

Corky's food is always good. The only thing that could be better is to have the old glass frosted mugs

Took a color tour with my wife, with Corky’s as the destination. It was a wonderful throwback for our throwback cruise. The corn dogs are very generous-definitely recommend. And the crusted fries are to die for.

I reached out to Allegan Wildlife to take care of the issue. I had a very positive experience.They answered my call on my first attempt and they were out the same day, successfully removed the varmint from my lake county property. Attached are a few photos from my experience.
