Food Scene

Dining at it's best, a taste of all local foods & coffees in the hands of a great chef. A bit high end, however, there are those times when the best is 'just right'. Perfect for celebrations, bdays. One tip, the acoustics are BAD, so if you want to enjoy conversation with your guests without straining your voice, try lunch or dining early or late.

Parks & Nature

Due to Covid, regulations change, for the time being, no walking down the 4 wheel road. Guards at road to assure adequate vehicle & driver! Lookout open. It's a steep mile down and as I've heard said, 10 miles up. 4 wheel drive only, remote and luscious! Plan a day to play, hike, swim, adventure in a valley of kings. Please be respectful.

Excellent menu, including the chocolate soufflé to melt one's heart. Often a wait, even with reservations, worth it. Setting a bit loud in the evening, service & food top notch.
