If you're looking for outdoor fun, make a day trip to Pilot Mountain. No easy stroll around the block, this hike is fantastic for a mid-vacation work out.

This steep landmass is on the to-do lists of many visitors to Pinnacle. But Pilot Mountain isn't the only highlight in the area. Jolo Winery and Vineyards, Pilot Mountain State Park, and Horne Creek Living Historical Farm are some other recommended attractions close by.

Very clean. Gorgeous restored property with lots of amenities. Only suggestion would be to maybe have some muffins or danish, or toast for continental breakfast. Would stay again!
