Rain Tree Cafe is an open-air restaurant in the main building at Cinnamon Bay Campground, beside the front desk and store. It's an easy meal to fold into a beach or campground visit, but a modest stop on its own. The operator describes it as serving campers and day visitors; how day-use access works isn't clear.

The dinner drawBreakfast and dinner are the cafe's main meals.

Breakfast and dinner are the cafe's main meals. Dinner follows changing themes, and prime rib is the dish visitors mention most often; cinnamon rolls and key lime pie also come up. Check the menu before choosing a dinner night, since the lineup changes.

The open-air cafe doubles as a campground gathering spot between meals, with cards, board games and reading. Its free Campground Chats have covered island crafts and music, wildlife, and astronomy.
