Gola Osteria
115 S Quarry StFun Italian restaurant tucked back in an unusual spot.
Grab a burrito, or if you are really going for it, try the cheatin' vegan nachos (hint - not vegan but man are they good). Great margueritas and fresh lime drinks. Go to the cantina side for a better deal pricewise. You can still get drinks from the bar and bring them over. Or sit down and be waited on and pay a bit extra.

Drinks & Nightlife
Gorgeous hotel that we helped renovate. Really nice bar with old fashioned and unusual cocktails. Can sit out on the patio (recommend!) or stay in the bar. Especially recommend going Thursday or Friday nights after 5:30 pm when The Good Truck taco truck is there serving the most delicious locally sourced gourmet tacos and fare. Watch out it gets crowded. Get there early, set up shop and enjoy a delightful evening.

You must try our wineries and the wine trail, even just for the ambiance and beauty, but also try the Good Life Farm, a gorgeous farm and cider tasting house. Their ciders are like champagne - dry, with tiny bubbles, and excellent flavors. Friday nights feature local cuisine and music oftener than not - check in with them to see.

Parks & Nature
Highest waterfall on the East Coast - taller than Niagara. Nice shaded easy hikes to it or go for the more challenging rim trail. Across the street is a terrific park with lakefront beach, picnic tables and miles of finger lakes charms.

My favorite hike. I think this is where Tarzan was filmed, anyway it is out of this world. Swimming at the base of the waterfall is awesome too. Park at the Route 13 entrance and hike up, then its all downhill and swimming and relaxing after.
