Shaker’s Village of Pleasant Hill
Between 1805 and 1910 some 3,000 acres of land past winding roads and surrounded by magical ancient lime stone fences was home to the third largest Shaker community. You can do a variety of stuff at the village, even stay at the Inn which is about 13 different restored Shaker buildings. (About $110 per night) [...]

Because I didn't plan to go hiking and I still went hiking, without water [...]
