This is a great spot for food and beer. The inside menu is more sophisticated and broad, but the burgers are amazing! If indoor seating takes too long, there is outdoor seating where you can go up and order beer/cider as well as BBQ (pulled pork, brisket, etc.).

Neighborhoods
Crystal Mountain is the neighborhood our little apartment is in. Within the gates, there are several streets you can walk on.
- Thorn Tree is our street and dead ends just past our house.
- Quail Roost is the street just behind us (you overlook this if you're watching the sunset) and is largely flat.
- If you're looking to go for a walk, I recommend:
1. Walking down Thorn Tree (back towards the mailboxes) then turning left and looping back around on Quail Roost - this is just under a mile.
2. For a longer walk with more uphills, you can walk down Thorn Tree (back towards the mailboxes) then turn right onto Topside. You can walk up the hill to the top and then go right onto Indian Trail. This loops around and connects back to Topside. From there you just track back on Thorn Tree (about 1.5 miles).

This is a lovely carriage trail where you can walk around the Cone Manor. Various lengths of trails, but is really peaceful. Not too much elevation.
