Most days you can do what many of our guests prefer and dine outside on the back patio and cook on the propane grill. You can pick up groceries at one of the nearby stores – I prefer curbside pickup from Walmart. Or if you don’t want to cook, savor a great meal at one of the many restaurants in the area. Ask us for some recommendations.
