American-German pub food serves the best local sweet potato fries! They have outdoor dining & you can see Lake Mohawk if you eat outside without having to pay a small fortune for good food. Make sure you book a reservation as they fill up quickly especially on weekends and evenings. Have an exhaustive list of craft beers, wines, & hard liquor to try!

A rare treasure in the local community; can spend a couple hours browsing through the wonderful & inexpensive collection of (oftentimes) brand-new items still with it's original packaging and never opened before. They have children's clothes, name-brand adult clothes, shoes, games, toys, DVD's, books, decorations, kitchen appliances, dishware, holiday hangings, household items & goods, and the list goes on and on. The volunteers and staff members are incredibly considerate, very nice, and generally all-around good people. Everything appears to be $1 or $3, and again oftentimes brand new never used or still not open from the original packaging. They also like to give away free softcover books & magazines. Looks small upon entering but it turns and curves around for a lot more room and space.
