Recently attended the Blueberry Festival at the Marketplace. The Marketplace is very nice and Festival was also very nice. The thing that needed attention was the parking situation. If there are future events to be held there, they must get help in organizing the parking. Going in and out of the “field” parking was terrible! There was no one monitoring it so people parked everywhere not leaving any exits from the rows. I had to go back and forth in the same row until luckily 2 cars in two rows left leaving an opening to one of the entry lanes. There were others in the same situation who followed me out. I hope that situation is remedied. Other than that, the Marketplace itself is delightful! Highly recommend...

Read moreHoliday GOLD!! Fantastic shopping for local gifts! They have a bakery called Pardon My French, that has great Kouign-amann pastry and strong French Pour-over coffee.

Worth a stop!
