Well, it is a full service southern cooking restaurant - fried green tomatoes and all - BUT go for the MILKSHAKES! They call them extreme and they are! At $9 each they are a meal themselves or a sharable dessert between 2-4 people. KIDS LOVE THESE. It is usually crowded so I recommend going in the afternoon for a 'snack'. Find them on facebook and check it out.

So many reasons, Swiming, hiking (go to the waterfall!), bike trails, fishing, canoeing, and more. There is a $3 fee to get in but easily can spend the whole day or just a few hours. There is also a free walking/biking path that runs from the entrance of Park to College Street that has free car parking as well. Lovely shaded walk/ride.

Fun family outing. Located behind the mall in an average office strip center, is a hidden gem. Challenging and exciting for groups. Runs about $20 a person but a great alternative to a movie for an evening out. Reservations recommended.
