Some of the best food in town and an amazing history to boot! Great Bar with great drinks and an awesome view of the creek as you dine. Weekends you need a reservation. Why not pair dinner with a show at the Bear Theater next door?

Parks & Nature
A great hike with an amazing view at the top. Need to be in decent to great shape though. There is also a Tibetan Monastery at the beginning of the hike which is cool to check out. Drive into Woodstock town and take Rock City Road to the top of the mountain. It's a straight shot and there's a parking lot up there. VERY busy on weekends so get in early. Bring water as there is nothing up there. There is a porta potty... bring paper.

There is a nice swimming hole at the end of this road going out of town. The road comes to a T intersection at the end and under the bridge you will see where people are swimming.
