Southern charm and hospitality! Everybody is "darling" here and meant in the kindest way. Local restaurants are only 1 block away from location (Americano Steakhouse, Highlander Barbeque, Bobs Dairyland, Puerto Neuvo). All great local food.
There is a frisbee golf course 1 block away that also has free concerts all summer long. Great little town.
