Another local favorite near the lake in Mayville. Dine inside or sit outside - due to Covid we are unsure if they will be playing music in the park like they have in the past - otherwise it is a great American restaurant!

City/town information

If you come to Chautauqua often, you may know about Jamestown and what this City has to offer! If you're a fan of "I Love Lucy" then I highly recommend checking the museum that's located downtown, out! There are paintings all over the downtown area of her. With history of Lucy being born and raised here; the City felt it necessary to build the Nation Comedy Center here, in the heart of it all. There is so much to see in the surrounding areas, if you have time, get out and explore all you can!

Are you visiting during the warmer months? Westfield offers a fabulous beach to kick back and relax at. Soak in the sun, walk the length of the beach, take a dip in the water, eat some local food and enjoy the atmosphere of the lovely village of Westfield! One more thing, if you are a beach glassin' connoisseur - keep your eyes peeled because Barcelona beach is THE beach to find glass! Enjoy!!!

Sightseeing

The Chautauqua gorge is a short, family fun hike. You CAN overnight camp or just take a day trip! There are quite a few places to pitch a tent. Upon turning onto Hannum Rd, keep going straight until you hit dirt road, keep going down the long dirt road...you'll start to see pavilions and spots to camp. Keep going until that road ends. Walk down into the gorge, once you reach the bottom you will be welcomed by an amazing swimming hole. Feel free, carefully, to walk either up or down the creek as long as its accessible and the water isn't too high. For other hikes, I highly recommend downloading AllTrails, the app will provide you all the information you need to know about every trail across the Country.

Barcelona is a popular beach for the locals and tourists - there are two access points. Plug the attached address into Google Maps or whatever maps you use - it will take you to a light after getting into Westfield where you can either go straight, left, or right. The GPS will automatically tell you to go right. Turning right will take you to the most popular part of the beach, going straight will take you to the opposite side of the break wall, where it can occasionally get busy but you get access to the other part of the beach...it's much longer on that side. If you love search for beach glass, this is a hot spot for that. If you enjoy kayaking, on a calm day, I recommend going for a paddle. Use your own discretion if you have children with you. Lake Erie is popular for those that love riding waves as well, feel free to take your paddleboard out for a surf!
