It is with a heavy heart that we must announce Chafe's Landing Restaurant will be closing for the remainder of the season.

We are incredibly grateful that no one was hurt, and we want to extend our deepest thanks to the local fire department for their quick and heroic efforts in controlling the fire.

We know this is difficult news for many of you who have made Chafe's Landing a part of your summer plans, and we want you to know that this is not goodbye. We are committed to rebuilding and returning stronger than ever, and we will keep you updated on our progress every step of the way.

Thank you to all our loyal customers for your continued support. Your love for Chafe's Landing means the world to us, and we look forward to welcoming you back in the future.

With heartfelt gratitude,
