Just a beautiful little mountain town built around a small lake and charming gazebo...you may even catch a wedding in progress...! You HAVE to go for breakfast at my MOST favorite place...The Pantry! Can't miss it...across the parking lot from the Gazebo. EVERYTHING is delicious...and worth the wait! My go-to is the Pantry Omelette, with crispy country potatoes, and homemade raisin bread cinnamon toast! Or you might wanna try the Brunch on the patio without the wait, and a sampling of many of their mouth-watering dishes and some LIVE entertainment!

A nice ride into the mountains into a quaint, old mining town turned gambling town...but the scenery on the way is worth it...and the ice cream at the old general store!! Try your luck! Perhaps your fortune is waiting?? There's a mining museum on the way that is well worth the stop, too.
