Delicious good. Unfortunately we got there around 12 and breakfast ends at 10 am. Please consider serving breakfast until later I know 12 is already lunchtime but some of us will never catch the worm.

** They DO carry ice, firewood, and those types of essentials. Support a local family business! Oh and they have THE MOST DELICIOUS HOMEMADE COOKIES. We threw ours over the fire for a nice gooey...
