INSIDER TIPS
When you go kayaking, make sure to bring a change of clothes in the event that water splashes into your kayak.
For movies and concerts, not only should you bring a seat, but also a picnic to enjoy so you won’t have to miss a moment of the entertainment.
The best place to park is in the city lot on the corner of Main and Lotz streets. It is easily accessible right after exiting Highway 12.
Make sure to come back in the fall to enjoy the merchants that will be occupying the new Harbor Square retail complex currently in the works.
