"Did wine tasting. Some of the wine was decent but the bottle prices were absurd.
High end menu for a restaurant on the premises; I did not try.
Bed and Breakfast was also available on the property.
The scenery was really special!"
"Athens Scuba Park Trip Report:
Park will NOT fill tanks older than 1992. Viz: 15-20 feet, after park closes and less people, viz obviously increases. Water hovered at/around 71 degrees. Depth was no more than 22 feet, bottom is clay, so stay off!! From Dell Diamond it was aprox. 3 hour drive. Camp..."ing is great, with showers, and bathroom (1). If you are camping there is a train that came at least two times late at night and early next morning.

"I was very pleasantly surprised by how interesting and interactive this place was. Great displays, large aquariums, and fishing ponds. I did not leave enough time to do it justice and plan to return."
