Things To Do
Bde Maka Ska Lake
Maybe it will be warm enough to swim or just nice enough to take a walk, why not check out the place where we first said, 'I love you' and the place where we got engaged in the moonlight right on Thomas Beach!
Francis Burger Joint
Our favorite local spot! They offer delicious cocktails, vegan burgers and other vegan bar food, but don't let that scare you! This is place is incredible whether you're vegan or not!

A truly beautiful Italian spot. You have not lived until you've had their ricotta and focaccia appetizer! We daydream about it.
Hen House Eatery
A delicious breakfast/brunch spot, one of Syd's favorite dishes ever is the Hen House Omelet!
