An evening walk around the lake is a great way to catch a sunset and unwind after a long day. It is about 1.5 miles around the lake and you will see plenty of ducks and people fishing most days.

Lord Hill is a nice forested park with walking/hiking/biking and horseback riding trails. It is particularly enjoyable in the fall when the leaves fall making for beautiful scenery.

This is a great breakfast place that is easy to miss. It is located on the other half of a gas station service station. The breakfast here far exceeds what the location would suggest. We have really liked everything we have eaten from this place.

This is a Breakfast experience. Longer than average wait times but the food is worth it. Large portions and a great story about a group of farmer's wives who started a breakfast restaurant that became a hugely popular success.
