😐 Cons: They had very sweet wine, but that is what they are aiming for. Sadly, I didn’t like any of the whites or reds. Pros: It was a great day to sit on the porch near the fireplace. They had a lovely set up inside or outside so you could find the perfect spot to sit and drink wine.

👍👍 This park is expansive, well thought out and maintained. It is supported by individual donors, which explains the excellent quality covered pavilions with tables, generous sized waste cans and availability of waste bags around the entire perimeter.

👍👍 Nice little gem in Midlothian. Live music on the weekends. Delicious food on the grill w/ a good selection of brewskis. If you don’t like smoke, this might not be the spot for you but if you don’t smoke but don’t mind it, you will love this spot.

Public swimming pool
👍 We went to go to the pool but didn't realize they were closed on the weekdays already. Drove a hour and a half to get there. At least the lake was available to "swim" in. The lake was mostly shallow but, my 16 year old son swam around the entire thing. It was very pretty and I took a lot of pictures...

👍👍 I passed through town the day they were tapping the newest batch of Origami Spaceship, and it was so juicy and fresh, I couldn't have only one! Between those and two others that I tried, I almost had to get a hotel and extend my trip another day! I was so glad to finally get in there and try a few,...
