Wow,things are getting worse everytime you visit this place. More restaurants are closing down, and the envirement is getting so unsafe its not funny.You use to feel safe taking your baby for a walk down the street,but i would never do that now.The quality of these restaurants are terrible,and half of them cut down a side,so now its just your meat and one side dish for all the money your spending.From now on i will go to point lookout, its such a cute town, they have great restaurants,and you feel safe walking at all times of night.Lots of people in the town ride bikes instead of taking their cars because its such a small town.Maybe i will come to the mile for a drink and in certain areas only

In an old warehouse pops up a craft brewery, spinning vinyl and serving up some really good brews in a local setting. The food truck outside gives you a chance for a good bite to eat while enjoying this weeks selection from the brewmaster.

My husband and I took our daughter and granddaughter to dinner. The ambiance was very good. We were able to talk and enjoy the meal. The service was excellent. Everyone enjoyed their dinner. I had the liver and bacon and onions......I almost never find this dish on the menu....so I ordered it. It was deliciously perfect! We did not have dessert. I recommend this restaurant for pub type food!

Our 2:00 appointment was postponed little by little until we finally got on the water at 4:00. While we were waiting a group returned that were very upset. They told us not to let the guide take us out on the ocean unless we were very experienced. A person in their group was taken away by ambulance with a broken foot. They were not happy.
And either was our Guide. After a two minute explanation on how to drive the jetski (first time ever on a jetski for my wife) we took off. The instruction ended there except for the occasional "you are not going fast enough. Try to keep up". It was fun being out on the water but I would not do it again with this company.

This is a very long sands beach. Lots of bird life and I'm sure lots of people in the summer. In September after Labor Day it is not deserve it but it's certainly is not crowded. We basically had Beach to ourselves. Very clean. Warm water.

$8 parking fee, cash only, no cards. $2 for carousel ride, and it's a seemingly longer ride than most carousels. Bathroom nearby, although I don't recall seeing changing table in men's room. Nice shaded, clean grassy areas for picnics, and playground has nice, soft, spongy surface with swings and other playground equipment. Easy on and off Southern State Parkway. There may be food concessions but I did not see them either. Regardless, recommend, will be back.

We went there for a family outing today and we were surprised to find this wonderful gem. Although this museum appear small at first, it is not, There is a lot to see, aircraft exhibits, space exhibits,interactive exhibits, multiple floors of exhibits, a Fireman's Museum and a cafe. Today we visited the space exhibits. They have thing such as real LEM Moon Lander. space suits, rockets and much more. We also visited the airplane hanger where they a a A-6F Airplane, F-14 Tom Cat Airplane and a A-10 Warthog Airplane. There is so much to see that it will take you multiple days to explore it. There are multiple floors and a skywalk where you can see the exhibits from above the main floor. This is great place for children. There is a lot to see and learn. We will be returning.
