I've been having pancake breakfast here every year since I was a child! My Grandmother, God Rest Her Soul, loved it here and in turn so did I. Owned and operated by an amazing staff, nice, kind people, that provide a nice laid back country atmosphere in the foot hills of the Berkshires! They have hiking trails, cross country skiing in the winter and plenty of farm animals and local wildlife for the whole family to enjoy. The tour is a great way to the introduction on making maple syrup and you will see it's sweet, but no easy task. I highly recommend you stop in and visit, this fun for the whole family destination with a nice warm pancake breakfast with some 100% Pure Granville Maple Syrup, awesome experience!!! A+++ work all around, family owned and all great people!!!
