Asia Barong

Reviewed By TravelGnee - Needham, United States

We enjoyed our stop and all the large and small Asian art pieces. A worthwhile stop. Convenient location with parking. Incredible selection of both classical and more modern art and furnishings. Doesn't have the most contemporary styles but a great place to visit and shop.

Lake Mansfield

Reviewed By Allawy619

It was a really nice spot with small beach, grass with some tables and stand grills and two portable toilets. The area was small but really nice with some trees for shade. There was a good number of parking spots. Lifeguards on duty when I was there. The staff were limiting the number of people there at once and also limiting your time for two hours (due to COVID-19), which I really appreciated.
