Food Scene

Great "stick to your ribs" kind of meals. Recommend the chicken fried steak! ** Note it is a CASH only place.

Best burger place in town. Great for malts and shakes too! A little pricey, and service is pretty slow, which they openly acknowledge noting, "if you want fast food go to mcdonald's" despite this being a "fast food" type of restaurant. It is totally worth the wait though if you love a good burger. Their hours can sometimes be sporadic, so have a backup place just in case. I recommend The Duke. The Child Star is a great option for adults looking for a slightly smaller burger. Their french fries are my favorite!

This is a great place for special occasions. Strongly recommend making a reservation well in advance. Prices vary depending on what you order. If you're on a budget, you can manage to eat fairly cheap if you stick with soup and a house salad. Their clam chowder is tasty.

This store is the closest to a Home Depot the area has. Much smaller than a store like Home Depot, but has all the home essentials. You can find things like snow sleds here too.

Entertainment & Activities

This is a fun family place. Known for their Alpine Slides, but also have mini golf, go-karts, and a couple water slides. It's a small place but a fun day out with the family.

One of two ski resorts. Snow Summit is the other one nearby. Passes are good for both resorts. Snow Summit has more family friendly slopes, and Bear Mountain has more playgrounds for tricks.

Local zoo. It's a small, unique zoo. It's a rehabilitation facility offering injured, orphaned and imprinted wild animals a safe haven; temporarily while they heal or permanently as they are unable to survive on their own.

This is a fun little place to stop in if you have anyone who likes minerals, rocks, and fossils. You can buy little bags containing minerals, rocks, and fossils that are also filled with dirt and you run it through their panning area to uncover all your treasures!
