Dining on the lake. The bar and grill is perfect for a casual lunch on the patio overlooking the lake. Ducey's on the lake restaurant is nice for slightly more upscale dining also overlooking Bass Lake.

Parks & Nature

Visit Nelder Grove of Giant Sequoias. A bumpy dirt road leads to the grove. The Avenue of the Giants trail was consumed by the Roailroad fire in 2017 and is currently closed. But there are wonderful trails from the Nelder Grove Campground to view the Giant Sequoias. It is a nice area for trail running and mountain biking. Usually covered in snow during winter.

Popular mountain bike (or hiking) trail. Mostly single track leading to Goat Mountain fire lookout. Amazing views from the top. The flies can be sort of annoying in the summer.
