The Visitor's Center is an excellent and suggested place to check out. It is manned by volunteers and they do a great job in providing helpful tips about the area. Lots of great brochures!

Lots of great local and national choices within an hour of the Happy Red Cabin - keep that drive home in mind though, please!!
Nothing can describe this place but “Adult Disney World” is a start! Totally over-the-top building, grounds - not to mention the beer! Awesome place for live music at their outdoor amphitheater or a huge roaring outdoor fire in winter months!

Half the crowd and super cool alternative to Sierra Nevada! Their ciders are wonderful - especially the seasonal ones! But, if you aren’t a cider fan, they also have some beer.

This is a beautiful privately owned waterfall and is especially great for families who might have an older guest that may not want to venture too far on foot. There is a small admission fee.

Food scene

a longtime favorite spot for excellent food and live music. Sadly, like many restaurants, they have been struggling with staffing issues so I would advise checking directly with them about their schedule.

Caro-Mi has been a local favorite for a very long time!! It is a family style dinner place and while the fried chicken can't be beat, I must admit, the chicken livers are my favorite! They sell out, so if you want them (as an appetizer or main entree, I would suggest asking them to save an order when you make your reservation! It's also BYO Wine, since they don't serve alcohol. There is a small corkage fee.

Even if you're not a BBQ fan, they have other excellent options. The staff has been there a long time and they're fun and so nice. Personal favorite is the Gorge Zipline jar (mason jar layered with bbq, beans, slaw, mac/cheese and collards. YUMMY! They also have a full bar.
