Where to Eat
We love Lively Station! Their market features local wines and pantry items. The coffee shop has fresh-baked pastries, both sweet and savory. The restaurant has the most amazing Salmon Salad and Pork Ragu. Try the Smash Burger with sidewinder fries. Tell them Kyle and Victoria sent you. Closed on Tuesdays.
