The perfect local getaway!!:
Now, you could say that I am biased--- I volunteer here... but long before I ever started, I have loved it!

Our volunteers are very helpful, and it's amazing how much the tour guides know, and can explain! (And, they offer short tours, and tours that have gone on for over three hours! You pick!) They offer golf cart tours, as well as walking tours, which is very convenient. October 17, 2014 is the Haunted Hayride!! Don't forget to make your reservation for the best haunt around!!
