This area is a great horse center and many exciting events take place. Also, for the outdoorsy-people, there are amazing hikes, trails, waterfalls and bike rides. The spring is an easy time to enjoy these outdoor activities. You can relax in the she shed even if your not a she! Summer is time to enjoy the lake. There is a dock with canoe and kayak for you. Here you can swim, fish or explore the lake and the park next door. The fall is our most spectacular season. The leaves start turning in September and reach their peak in mid October. In my driveway is an enormous ginkgo tree. It has been known to drop all its leaves on Halloween Eve. A local farmers market runs every Saturday morning from spring through October, and it is just up the street from your lodging. A visit to the Lorenzo Mansion is a great experience.
