This place is amazing to visit. There is almost always a horse shoe that you can walk in on free, or some kind of special event. We recommend renting one of their golf carts to tour the big property and all the buildings. Several restaurants and shops there, and a beautiful hotel. About a 45 minute drive from here.

Everything Else
A neat small town with unique shops and restaurants on the main street. Try Bev's Better Burgers a little off downtown for a great homemade burger, and Conestoga Restaurant on the main street. at the end of the main street, be sure to stop in Tea Room - a unique tea room/bakery serving breakfast and lunch in an old Victorian house. We also like the mom and pop breakfast place called Brown's Country Buffet.
