We love the night life here - it’s a small mountain town but at night the streets are closed off and restaurants and breweries and the distillery have campfires and tables up and down the streets and it’s such a fun escape, lots of things to do and see. About a 35 minute drive from the BNB but the best ever date night. Great restaurants and brew!
