Lots of nice restaurants of shops in this historic downtown! Rick's steakhouse is an upscale restaurant, and there are many others that have patio seatings. Just a good place to spend an afternoon to relax. You can even ride horse carriage to look at the historical homes around the area. More

Had a nice time shopping. A couple of really nice antique stores & some lovely boutiques with some really different selections. White & Gray Garden Shop & Giggles children shop. I would avoid the Plum Creek Primitives corner store at all costs though unless you want to ruin a lovely day with a snotty attitude. Squareburgers made up for it.... More

There are plenty of small antique shops to wander around in and several restaurants. My two favorite place is the Mom and Popcorn Shop and the Pantry Restaurant (love their pies). The area has an old-time appeal with a modern artsy twist. More

What a wonderful place to spend the day! Or stay for the night at the hotel on the square. 2 coffee shops with great espresso drinks to start the day or mid-day jolt of caffeine. Great stores including home decor, clothes, accessories, ski shop (amazing!), and restaurants. Try the Spanish restaurant there Cafe Malaga. Amazing!! More
