Ship's Place

Ship's Place Family-owned in honor of Wayne “Ship” Shipman, a fun-loving man who loved stories, hunting, sweets, hot dogs, and rum with 3 olives.

Ship’s Place is where family, friends, and good times come together!

🚤 MESSAGE IN A BOTTLE… Lake Odessa Edition 👀

Keep your eyes on the water this weekend… because Ship’s Place floats are headed out with hidden discounts, freebies, and surprises inside! 🌊🍔🍹

If you snag one:
⚓ ONE float/coupon per family please — let’s keep the fun going for everyone!
⚓ Bring BOTH the float AND the coupon into Ship’s Place to redeem.
⚓ We’ll collect them back so we can keep this tradition going all summer long!

📸 BONUS:
Take a pic or video of your float find and tag Ship’s Place on Facebook to be entered into a GRAND PRIZE drawing for a special surprise! 👀🎉

You never know what kind of lake treasure you might find floating your way…

This Memorial Day weekend, we’re reminded that freedom isn’t free. 🇺🇸

As we gather with family and friends at the lake, we also pause to remember and honor the brave men and women who gave everything for our country. Their sacrifice is the reason we get to enjoy moments like these together.

From all of us at Ship’s Place — thank you to those who served, those we remember, and the families who carry their legacy forward.

Join us this weekend for good food, cold drinks, and time well spent with the people who matter most. ❤️🤍

🌸 Ship’s Place is in Full Bloom! 🌸

They say “April showers bring May flowers,” and that has never been truer for us. This past month, our community showered us with so much support that business is officially blooming! We are beyond grateful to feel as much admiration for our little lakeside gem as we have ourselves.

As we work passionately to keep the good vibes (and great food) flowing, we’re creating even MORE space within our team for:

Passionate Culinary Creators 👨‍🍳

Friendly, High-Energy Servers & Bartenders 🥂
