This is one of the best beaches, it is about 25 minutes drive from the house, but if you want to spend the whole day at the beach, this is the place to go!

Food scene

This is one of my favorite places to eat! In the summer there is outdoor seating. The restaurant is really small and does not take reservations, weekends are somewhat busy so expect to wait a bit! Very friendly staff and the menu is AMAZING!!

This restaurant has a old supper club vibe to it. It has wonderful food. By far, hands down, the best steak I have had in the city. They do take reservations, however, we have never had to wait for a table. The inside is small and it has a dining room and bar. We usually spend about $50 here for two people. Expect to spend at least an hour here.

This is only a 10 minute walk from the house. It is a classic diner. Cash only! Best milkshakes, hands down! They also have award winning cheese curds here. Expect to spend about a half hour if your eating here. My favorite thing to get is a cheeseburger, milkshake, and cheese curds! Love to grab some food and walk down to the park/beach to eat it.
