Many of you may remember Townsend’s Plantation in Apopka.  It closed years ago and reopened as The Captain and The Cowboy.  After this restaurant was forced to close by the city of Apopka, a new favorite has arrived – The Highland Manor Restaurant.  Restored to its former glory the dining area is beautiful in decor and charming in ambiance.  There are private rooms available for small groups at no extra charge.

This Saturday, May 23rd,  you have an opportunity to explore this beautiful mansion yourself and at little or no cost.  They’re hosting “Summer Movie on the Lawn” nights, and this week’s double feature will be Princess Bride at 8p and Smokey and The Bandit at 10p.  There will be hot dogs and hamburgers cooked outdoors on a grill available for purchase, as well as snacks and drinks.  Bring your own seating and plan to spend a romantic evening under the stars in the shadow of this Victorian Mansion.
