It's an unassuming spot that is easy to drive past. We've never been disappointed with any menu item. Try the Chicken Karaage taco--Japanese style fried chicken taco. yum, yum, yum! They do have limited hours of business on weekdays so check before you drive over.

This is their original location and we believe the most charming spot, right on the Swamp Rabbit trail. (TR is my wife's hometown so I am biased). It's another great spot for pizza, unique salads and fresh, inventive flavors of ice cream made daily.

Parks & Nature
This isn't really a hike, but an easy roadside pull-off spot with a large exposed rock face and great views. Some folks get a little startled at the spray paint defacement. We take sidewalk chalk instead. Also this is a fun spot to take a picnic lunch and enjoy the view. And just a little further up the road is "Pretty Place" AKA Fred W. Symmes Chapel at Camp Greenville.

Fred W. Symmes outdoor chapel is called "Pretty Place" by locals because of its amazing view. It is within YMCA Camp Greenville and was built in 1941 on the side of the mountain. It is a popular spot for weddings so call or check their calendar beforehand.
