Awesome recommendation from Angela at the best Western Plus Hotel. We were looking for something to do and she suggestion this home town theatre that had brought countless hours of movie going to she and her family. We sat in the balcony and wow what great seats. This theatre is run by volunteers and they seem to love what they do. Greta movie selection, super prices and the atmosphere is amazing. Would highly recommend versus the generic big movie theater.

Really loved this beach. Parked literally about 30 feet from where we set up for the afternoon and put our kayaks in from the beach! Not too crowded, bathrooms, and great trees to provide shady areas.
