   State Parks
   
   
   great place, lots of adventure here growing up as a kid. My family was the 2nd to enter when they opened in the 70's. We returned every summer as it was no further to work for Dad and the camping rates were cheaper than keeping the power on at home all summer. Miles of bike trails and several good fishing holes. The boy scouts used to jamboree in a remote area of the park away from the campground. As a kid I often ventured out on my bike for hours and though my folks put their trust in the chain-link fence that surrounds the park, I enjoyed much of the local towns as well. See more..

   This single-screen cinema is a classic, with modern seating and a staff that is pleasant and accomodating. Seating in the balcony adds an interesting twist.

Though the temperature was still quite comfortable, the staff offered the use of blankets and free hot beverages to get rid of the chill. They also run an eclectic selection of films. See more..

   The Old Ordinary is a remarkable example of early American architectural and cultural history, built on the main road from Boston for stagecoach travelers to stop "for an ordinary meal," a drink in the taproom and sometimes a bed for the night. A home and family business, the Ordinary served local travelers for over 150 years - a meeting place to exchange news, celebrate events, see friends and sample the latest batch of cider. Compromised of the original 1686 structure as well as additions dating from the 1750s and 1800s, the Old Ordinary's rooms are a treasure trove of times gone by.
