Food scene

By far our favorite relaxed restaurant. Fresh seafood in a beach shack kind of atmosphere. Walking distance from our properties. Got to check out the blueberry jalapeño margarita!

Featured on a popular food television show. You will see why when you bite into their delicious morsels! I can’t decide if I like the main dishes or the sides better! Don’t drag your feet, they sell out quick! Open Thursday-Sunday.

This is a bit of a drive, but if you are here at Christmas time it is worth it. For many who live here this is a tradition. Make sure you get tickets way ahead of time and get there early as it gets VERY crowded. Eat a home-cooked spread in the restaurant before you head out on the hay-ride through their impressive light display. We go every year and love it!
