Smokey Ridge Ranch - Apple Hill #133 is a charming restaurant that offers a unique experience of picking fresh chestnuts and apples. The staff is friendly and eager to help. It has a wide selection of apples and wines for tasting, with Sangiovese and late harvest being the popular choices for their sweet taste. This place is perfect for a fall picnic amidst beautiful trees. They also offer wine flights for tasting.
The restaurant is known for its chestnut picking, which is a narrow window of opportunity as the season lasts only about a month. Visitors can pick chestnuts protected by a spiny husk, using a shoe or stick to pry out the golden nuggets. Once the bucket is full, they pay per pound for the chestnuts. It's a great learning experience for those who haven't tried chestnut picking before.
The restaurant also offers wine tasting and apple picking, providing a well-rounded fall experience for visitors. With its friendly staff, beautiful setting, and unique offerings, Smokey Ridge Ranch - Apple Hill #133 is a must-visit destination for a peaceful and enjoyable experience.
