I love this little spot! Go up after dinner and bring a bottle of wine and a blanket to watch the sun go down. You can even start a little fire in the pit made by locals.

Dry Falls is the perfect place to bring the family. The "Hike" is lined with railing and leads you right underneath the waterfall. You can walk completely behind it, which is why it got the name "Dry" falls.

Shopping
For women's clothing, there is absolutely nowhere else in town. I LOVE Anna's selection and her prices. The clothing caters toward young adults, but has a variety of looks for all styles and ages.

Mountain Fresh is the perfect place to go during the week for their Lunch Buffet. This gourmet grocery store does it right! On the weekends they have a Breakfast Buffet as well.
The grocery store itself is extremely high priced, I would recommend it for everyday shopping needs.
