Before you visit Doc Waters
Plan for the outdoors, since the whole cidery is outside. Ground shades meant for the beach or small children are allowed, but larger pop up tents that need stakes are not. Check docwaterscidery.com for the weekend food trucks and music before you go.
If you want a fire pit or a private party space, reserve on the website ahead of time. The cidery provides the firewood and tends the fire for you.
Cedar Grove Store is 2.2 miles away, and Grape Expectations is 2.7 miles away. Both are beer stores, so they are easy stops to add on the way home.
