Food scene
One of the closest places to our cabin to get food. Beware the sticker-shock on the sandwiches ($17-24!) but they are large, delicious, and come with a slice of blueberry bread plus chips. The sweets and breads are more reasonably priced and equally delicious. They also sell wine/cheese but I have not purchased before so cannot speak to cost/quality.

This place is part farmer's market/part fish-mongerer and all AWESOME. I truly never know what I will find when I go in - but note the giant Kettlecorn bag and local veggies. They make their own tortilla chips and you can get your growler filled. Bliss....

A pocket-park with boat-in camping and charming trails to the water. Take a picnic and watch the boats come and go, but do hold small children close as there are minimal guard rails to protect from falling in.
