One of our favorites! Unique menu options that are regularly updated. Small and intimate setting. Nice date night location but ok for families (maybe not very young kids) too.

The North Street Nature Trail is a great 1 mile loop for hiking or biking in Central Lake. It's located on the west end of North Street in Downtown Central Lake. It's about a 3 mile walk from the house through the loop and back to the house. See if you can spot some of the painted rocks that families/kids leave on the trail!
