Civil Goat Coffee
704 Cuernavaca Dr NQuirky local coffee shop with a resident goat.
Affordable wine bar with plenty of outdoor seating, underneath a huge live oak that once was a playground for our kids after services at St. Michael's Episcopal church. My favorite appetizers: fried oysters on homemade potato chips, with pico de gallo; crab cakes.

If you want authentic Barbq, this is it. It's a drive, and it's worth it. No heavy tomato-based sauce, just lovely, flavorful dipping sauce. Butcher paper on the tables, good sides. Also, take it home.

Sightseeing
Small park very close by. Gentle trails on the lake, bird-watching, but also interesting wooded trails by a creek.
I recommend the Waterfall Trail
