On our last night at Bass Lake we had the most fantastic night relaxing with drinks and Jessie, our amazing bartender. The bar was clean as was the bathroom. There was no music when we were there but we were able to play all the songs we wanted on Touchtunes!

Great bar for a small community with a ski chalet feel. They have pool tables and live music on certain nights

Great spot to sit on the deck and enjoy a beer. Pretty decent selection of beer as well.

Fun spot.I found the staff to be quite friendly and no issues with security as seen in other reviews.My only annoyance was the big slob and his barfly girlfriend who kept giggling at me as I threw away five dollars in the jukebox. With no music playing, I saw the jukebox and thought, "Let's get this party started!"Little did I know there was a game about to begin...No sooner did I insert my money did jukebox slob pull out his Samsung Galaxy 19 and perform a hostile takeover of the music machine. Apparently, if you buy into the jukebox program, you can select songs from your cheap-ass cell phone and override other's selections. He did so for my entire visit.BRO, I don't mind listening to your tunes and I'm cool sharing, but when you and your crackhead girlfriend move all my tunes to the 2AM slot so you have fun laughing at me, that's not cool.Whatever...Now I know, DO NOT PUT $5 in the jukebox!!! Like everything nowadays, there's a workaround to ensure you're left short of tunes, short of $5 and the laughingstock of two trolls.Other than that, The Pines Bar is cool!*Cheers!*

I can't say enough about this landmark at Bass Lake, but I'll try as best as I can. It's probably my favorite watering hole in the area, and this week proved it. Take nothing away from Ducey's, The Marina Bar & Grill, or The Forks, but if you're looking for a great atmosphere, good pours, a view of the lake, and a piece of history, you've come to the right place.My dad and I came in and were served within a few minutes on a Wednesday afternoon around 4pm. We immediately struck up a conversation with some locals as the nice lady bartender served me a Buffalo Trace and my dad a Coors Original. It was the only drinks we had as we were just grabbing a quick drink while the kids got pizza and ice cream nearby. Low and behold, it was Happy Hour, and because the subtotal was $10.75, we decided to tip our bartender $5 towards the service. What really brings me back here is also the opportunity to get belly up to the bar in the same seats Dan Aykroyd and John Candy during the filming of the John Hughes film, The Great Outdoors. I've included some pics of the stars of the movie they have hung up at the Pines Bar. This is definitely a must visit, and when you do, make sure to take your own pics to keep the Great Outdoors memory alive!

The perfect lake bar!!!!! We had so much fun and LOVED the service. We sat at the bar and instantly felt welcomed by our bartender, Jessie. She makes some delicious dirty martinis and is very attentive and sweet. We hope to visit this bar sometime in the future. They have an outdoor deck and dance floor!

Soo much fun going here our first night, met some great bartenders. I wish I remembered his name but he was a young cowboy, he wore a cowboy hat so I'm just assuming. Lol anyways I also met some pretty cool locals who've I made friends with. I love the overall rustic country like atmosphere. Also I will say I read the other reviews about the accusations of racism and I think that's so unfortunate. I'm a Latina woman and felt totally comfortable. I think it's how you portray it going in, the staff and locals mostly consist of Caucasian decent but it's funny to assume that because after talking to some of them I found out they were Native American, Filipino, etc. We are all mixed in one way or the other and as long as we can respect one another that's all that matters. Cheers!

So the pine bar, so my experience is the place for one of the rudest people ever working at a bar. So rude you don't even really want go in. I don't know his name but i'll just call him Paul Blart wannabe. Actually I can't really say that because that man in the movie was actually pretty nice, this guy is completely opposite.The only nice thing about this bar is how nice the bartenders are other than that I don't really care for this bar. Especially when you're washing your hands in the corner of your eyes, you see man's dick. Are you guys really too cheap to put borders up are you kidding me, that's disgusting. Then the girls bathroom according to my girlfriend was not the best, dirty and disgusting.Oh also if they tell you, you get to choose your own songs don't bother because I gave the lady around maybe $15. I didn't hear one of my songs and some people weren't even giving her money, I love it.So the Pine bar where are you have a rude Moby Dick. Just rude all the way around, I don't care for this bar probably won't ever come back to the bar. Until they fix their shit!

I have been to this bar before and I liked it the first time, as I still do now. The bar is old and classic. Right when you walk in, the place screams country. Pool tables, classic wooden country bar a cute little dance floor to the side, and neon lights that welcome you. Now, I will way, there were a few things that bothered me this time around. For one, the security guard was EXTREMELY rude. Not a very likeable person whatsoever. He was rude to my family when we came in, and rude to me when we left. My boyfriend has a few words about him that I shall not repeat. Bathrooms could be cleaner, and I was disappointed by the DJ, for I had been waiting for my song for some time to come on and she played it for about 30 seconds whereas she played full on songs through and through.Other than that, great place to try out, but would recommend a few changes.

Low reviews for what? Visiting for the weekend from LA, when I travel I always wanna check out the local scene. Security super friendly, bartenders were very nice, and service was quick. This place deserves to be closer to 5 stars let's get it up there!
