McDougal’s Village Tavern
From the first moment you see McDougal’s you know it is a cool place. The large deck is creatively adorned with license plates from all over the US and makes for a colorful presentation. On the warm summer nights, they put up a large covering and provide deck-diners with misters to keep things cool. The inside is just as festive is outside, with big screen TV’s to top it off. In addition to the... read more

REI
Or as my husband thinks of it, “Outdoor Enthusiast’s Paradise”. We frequent the store on Franklin Rd. in Brentwood and it is always a pleasant experience.

Which is important if you end up buying a... read more
