Food is always amazing. Great spot to celebrate a birthday, anniversary, etc. My favorite dish is the BBQ shrimp and grits-the sauce is to die for (And if you ate it every day, it probably would lead to an early death)!

A must see stop in Central Oregon. Hike Misery Ridge for the full experience! I prefer to hike the Misery Ridge loop clockwise- after the bridge go left and walk along the river first. I don't recommend this hike on a hot day.

There are a couple loops for walking/jogging. Shortest loop is about 3 miles, but you can extend it by going further north. There are multiple bridges to turn around and come back on the other side.
