Food scene
Great “saloon” (kid friendly during the day) with amazing food! Their mushroom burger is the best. However, you have to get the BBQ plate. Just do it. They sometimes have live music in the back on their patio. There is also one pool table. Great ambiance enveloped in tantalizing kitsch. Check it out!

The inflatables are open during the summer season only. You can pick up a fishing license at Ace Hardware. Parking is free along Lake Drive.
