Itinerary

STOP 1

Start your day in a town by the river. Grab a coffee and explore a few shops set in a historic mill from the 1800s. Drive time to the second stop is 13 minutes.

STOP 2

It’s time to stretch your legs! Here, we recommend two trails of varying lengths. One even lets you feed chickadees out of your hand. Drive time to the third stop is 5 minutes.

STOP 3

Up next? A farm distillery, brewery & restaurant all in one. If you're not in the mood, we recommend a funky country market instead. Drive time to the fourth stop is 15 minutes.

STOP 4

Choose between a couple of breweries, a riverside stroll with a connection to Hollywood, a gorgeous historic spot, or a farm for local goodies and furry friends.

Great Mix of Outdoors and Local Shops

This trip was the perfect combo of being in the great outdoors and enjoying local shops and markets. It’s an easy beautiful fall drive (I’m sure it would be equally as lovely in any season). If you do this trip on the weekend we recommend you open Stop 3 ahead so you can book a table at the first location on the list (it was fully booked and an hour wait!) Overall, this was an awesome day trip!

Great trip!

We made this an overnight trip and were happy we did. This allowed use to do some of the stops on one day and the other stops on the next day and get to experience some of the other recommended places. The first stop was a beautiful town we felt needed more than the hour to hour and a half the was recommended to fully get to explore and experience everything so we were glad we had planned for this trip to get 2 days so we weren't rushed. The second stop we were too impressed about because we didnt see anything the book said we would but the stop we went to was an alternative that was recommended because originally stop was closed. The other stops and places we went were terrific and unique we enjoyed it and would definitely recommended this trip. This was our first Guess Where Trip and we are planning to do more. I loved that for this trip some of the stops had choices for the stops which was great to fit everyone's needs and preferences.

The trip was fun. Only on the second stop we could not find the destinations. Sudden tract and Dickson wilderness area. On the last package Westfield heritage village was not open to the public as they were filming there, other than that we had a great time and seen new places
