Stumpy’s Lakeside Grill and Lake Granbury Marina are more than just stops on the water – they are award-winning landmarks of North Texas. Over the years, our commitment to providing a high-quality lakeside experience has been recognized by national maritime organizations, regional news outlets, and, most importantly, our local community. From being named one of the top dockside bars in the country to being voted the best place for catfish and boat rentals in the county, we are proud to share the accolades that reflect our dedication to lake life in Granbury.
Lake Granbury Marina Wins “Small Marina of the Year” from The Marina Association of Texas
Lake Granbury Marina was honored with the prestigious “Small Marina of the Year” award at the 53rd annual MAT Conference. Evaluated on facility quality and community service in the under-200-slip category, this statewide recognition celebrates our crew’s commitment to maintaining a family-owned destination that balances professional maritime services with an iconic restaurant and retail experience.
Lake Granbury Marina Wins “Best of Hood County” for Boat Rentals
As the top-voted choice for “Best Boat Rentals,” Lake Granbury Marina was recognized as the premier destination for exploring Lake Granbury. Our well-maintained fleet of pontoons, tritoons, and Sea-Doos – paired with our focus on safety and hassle-free service – ensures every guest can create sun-sparkled memories on the water. This award celebrates our commitment to being the most trusted rental provider in the county.
Stumpy’s Closet Wins “Best of Hood County” for “Best Boutique”
Stumpy’s Closet has been recognized as the “Best Boutique” in Hood County, highlighting our success in creating much more than a simple ship store. We are proud to consider Stumpy’s Closet a premier shopping destination on Lake Granbury with year-round lake fashion, gifts, and treasures that will have you coming back every weekend to check the displays.
Stumpy’s Lakeside Grill Wins “Best of Hood County” in the “Best Catfish” Category
Voted “Best Catfish” in the county, our kitchen is famous for tender filets fried to a golden crisp. It’s a North Texas tradition to gather around a basket of our catfish and hushpuppies on the covered dock – a staple for families and anglers since 2009.
We were also honored to be named a top contender in the highly competitive “Best Tacos” category. Whether it’s our famous fish tacos with signature crazy slaw or our fiery “El Pollo Furioso,” our bold, fresh flavors are a centerpiece of the Lake Granbury food scene.
