I feel as if I should like this more than I do. The positioning of the rapids ride underneath the seating area is I think really innovative, but perhaps all the water kind of takes away from that a little.
I would personally have the water shaped more like a river [rather than the rapids being on the edge of the lake] going underneath the seating and have the opposite bank a few tiles behind the rockwork so the seating area still makes sense.
I'm also in the 'should like it more than I do' boat. I'm really not a fan of having it in the lake. If you extend the rocks to be a full barrier between the rapids and the lake I think it'd be much better. I like the building and the seating area looks good as well.
I've never been a fan of rapids that traverse an open lake. I also feel like going under the dining tables is too much of a gimmick. It feels a bit forced, and not very natural. Probably due to it being so square and absolutely rammed full of tables.
I have to agree with Louis, it feels forced. The lake doesn't seem realistic to me, as a rapids ride is powered by a current. Hard to make a current work on a lake...
I have no problem with having a small, slow section of a rapids ride go through a small pond or lake, but if this section is any larger than what's on screen I'd think that it's too much.
Restaurant looks nice, finished interior would make it even better.
Hanging a sign over the umbrellas in the rear of the restaurant seems like weird idea to me. Nobody would ever see it, and even if they did, they'd already be in the restaurant.
i agree with louis...the screen just isn't too appealing to me, almost like you're taking a step back with this screen compared to how good you've gotten lately.
I think it's a great idea, but needs a little tweaking to get it right. I agree with what's been said about rapids not flowing too well down a wide river/lake, so perhaps it would work better if there was additional land on the right-hand side. That would create a channel for the ride, and allow the seating area to expand more (onto the land) and be less cramped.
Spend some time to unwind during you day at KnoxVegas in the Fort Knox Grill and Bar, but never be away from the action. Dine outside as rapids rush below your feet.

I like the idea of the dining area above the rapids. It has atmosphere, though I have my doubts as well about building a rapid in a lake...

That boat looks a little wet.

A little more rockwork on the sides could really help fit the river look.
