This is one of the best places we've been. Homey, comfortable, friendly, and quality. We came and tasted some local ciders, which were fantastic; the wine selection is a lot more robust, but there are plenty of better reviews that can explain that than I can. Overall, VERY recommended.

We went to see the Putnam County Spelling Bee at the Village Theater. The staff could not be more kind and accommodating, even helping us select perfect seats to accommodate our needs. The actors were so talented and captivating. I marveled at the performance and the venue was perfectly intimate! There is not a bad seat in the house and I can not think of a more enjoyable way to spend an evening! There have been several great performances we have seen at this theater and I highly recommend going to a performance!

Duthie Hill Park

Reviewed By customboard - Redmond, United States

First time I've visited this park, I was so positively surprised and felt like a little kid on Christmas morning. While my skills are not good enough for the real cool stuff, even just the end of the base camp trail has such a nice flow that I couldn't stop riding it. Kudos to the Evergreen crew who maintains it with the help of all the volunteers.

Reviewed By Katzlat

I took the intro to ballet with no previous dance experience, and the classes were amazing! The teacher was spectacular: instead of feeling intimidated, it was so fun to get started learning this beautiful art form. Progress was made quickly, with just the right mix of fun and challenge. The option to take the class virtually was also wonderful: both to lower COVID risk, and to save time driving! I would highly recommend this studio to everyone even remotely interested in dance!

Tiger Mountain

Rough and rugged hiking trail best suited for those with some hiking experience.

Reviewed By JasonHennig - Renton, United States

We went up the south side of the mountain, up the Tiger Mountain Trail. Branching off, we hiked up the south peak, which wasn't crowded at all--it looked like we were the first ones there in some time, so I highly recommend it for a secluded hike. But I've hiked this mountain a lot, and it's always been a favorite of mine.
