Food Scene

This brewery is near and dear to my heart. I worked there since it opened at the beginning of September 2015. They have amazing locally sourced food, they brew their own beer, and their is another business called Driftdough. They make gourmet doughnuts and source local coffee and kombucha, which is super tasty. I highly recommend trying it at least once to check out the decor. Live music every day except for Sundays!

I love their iced vanilla nirvanas. They also do growlers of cold brew to take home. They have a small selection of nice cafe eats!

Drinks & Nightlife

This is mostly a gin bar, but also has delicious food. They are still fairly new, opened at the end of October 2018. They have plenty of vegan options as well, which I super nice. Highly recommend trying this one out.

Parks & Nature

Not far from the house, which is super convenient. There is a spot called the lookout which is pretty awesome to check out! There is also some caves, but I believe they are blocked off, and a cool old graveyard. Lots of different hiking trails, and you can never get lost, but walk for miles.

Essentials

This is an extremely convenient spot. Grocery store and liquor store all in one. It's also attached to a small strip mall with restaurants, shops, hardware store, etc.
