This is our favorite restaurant! Make a reservation because you can be waiting up to an hour for a table, but it’s worth it. The food is amazingly delicious (ever-changing menu that utilizes local ingredients) and the service is the best.

Sightseeing
Hiking trails, canoe & kayak rentals, and places to take the kids.
This place has a great history and numerous trails that offer spectacular views. If feeling really ambitious, you can hike over to Hinsdale and find yourself on top of Mount Wantastiquet. It’s a totally doable hike-I did it with a bunch of 6th graders. **The second photo is not even of the area. Not sure why or where they got that photo!**
