Excellent local park with lots of adjoining trail circuits. Offers a pool (must pay or be members, we believe,) basketball hoops, tennis courts, baseball and soccer play areas, playground areas for kids, 2 dog park areas (small and large dogs,) and hosts great local arts, crafts, and beer festivals, among other fun events.

*Outstanding cocktail bar at the top of the venue in the small white house. This is actually also part of the brewery but most people don't know about it, or overlook it. They have excellent craft cocktails and you can get all of the same food and more in a more intimate (great for dates,) environment.

This place was LITERALLY built from the ground up by our dear friend and neighbor. She recently retired after many years of running it, and it was handed over to a longtime staff member, and local Crozetian. They have EXCELLENT coffee, snacks, teas, baked goods, and more. *It is open M-S. The garden areas and outdoor seating are also just delightful!
