OK.. this one is hard to find (she runs a kitchen out of her house), and she has sporadic hours (because she can).. but holy cow she makes great Thai food! But if you drive by and she's open.. STOP and GET FOOD!

You are on the lake at the Chalet! Explore from the dock. Night swimming in summer is THE BEST!

It's fun to go see the dam. There's a beautiful smaller lake behind it -- COLD-- that has great trout fishing. The AT runs just up from the dam (drive behind 1/4 mile) and you can see great views of the lake in winter.
