Best atmosphere for bbq in town. The hunter's lodge feel to it. The stuffed avocado (stuffed with pulled pork and served with tortilla chips) is a meal. Don't forget to save room for the cobbler.

Mustard based BBQ sauce. The fried catfish is amazing. I always get extra seasoning. Small but cozy eating in, but they do a great job with take out.

Just set the oven to 425 and pop over there to pick up a pizza. We love the thin crust Gourmet vegetarian with chicken added. Bring it home and 20 minutes later you are serving up fresh pizza around the firepit.

Mild to moderate hike. Beautiful fall colors, but unusual and fun any time of the year. Backpack a picnic lunch all the way to the Grotto, its worth the extra distance. Remember to take out anything you take in.....

Food scene
We love the relaxed atmosphere, patio dining and slow pace. Dont go here if you are in a hurry. The calamari appetizer is great and there is enough to serve as a meal. The poached pear salad and Southwest Cuban are also favorites. Try the Green chile posole if it is the soup of the day! You can’t go wrong. It has a limited and unusual children's menu, but the ziti seems to always please.
