Restaurant and event space The LakeHaus will close at the end of May, according to a company social media post. 

Some context: Owner and CEO Florian Kloes said in the post that ongoing construction and "other challenges" have made it difficult to maintain the restaurant.

"Denton embraced our family from day one, and your loyalty and support over the years have meant more to us than we can ever fully express," the post reads.

For its final days open, The LakeHaus will have a DJ May 29 and specials throughout the weekend.

The backstory: The LakeHaus offered chicken wings, gyros, sandwiches, quesadillas, along with full bar service. The restaurant also had a brunch menu on Saturdays and Sundays, according to the company’s website.

Universal Kids Resort will open in Frisco on July 1.

What you need to know: The theme park is a first-of-its-kind that is designed for kids. Guests can start planning their vacations with tickets sales and hotel bookings now available, according to a May 28 news release.

Tickets, packages and the first annual pass option for Universal Kids Resort are officially on sale.

Looking back: The theme park was announced in January 2023 and it was always geared toward young children and families. The project later broke ground that year and the hotel joined the Frisco tourism group in early 2026.

Quote of note: "When Universal opens, it's going to be something that's really unique about growing up in Frisco," Mayor Jeff Cheney said. "It's going to be kind of a big part of the Frisco DNA going forward."
