Tim and I go there ALL. THE. TIME. It's the place to go while in Syracuse because it's basically a one-stop-shop. They have multiple restaurants, all the shopping you could need, and plenty of entertainment! Some of our favorite spots are Cheesecake Factory, APEX Bowling & Entertainment, Dave & Buster's, Beef Jerky Outlet, Cinnabon, RPM Go-Carts, Carmelcorn Shoppe, Koto Japanese Hibachi, and more!

Rio Grande has to be one of our top 5 places to go! It's authentic Mexican cuisine and the inside is just so cool. It's quaint but that's the way we like it. Tim typically tries something different every time while I stick to my delicious Quesadilla Roja. Plus, their alcoholic beverages look amazing! What better place to get a margarita than a Mexican restaurant?



Just a 8.3 mile / 13 minute drive from the Carrier Circle Hotels.

This is where Tim and I had our engagement photos taken! It's one of the clearest, most beautiful lakes in all of NY. Definitely worth making time to go see the gorgeous blue-green waters for a hike or a take a dip to cool off.

Go to the closest Wegmans and do yourself a favor and get a Ultimate Chocolate Chip Cookie Cup with Buttercream filling or the cookie sandwich version. They are to DIE for!! I'm 100% positive that the enemy could convince the two of us to spill any and all secrets in return for one of those bad boys.

Also, it's Wegmans. The best place ever and you just need to go, especially if you've never been!

For all coffee lovers like Lindsay - this place is for you!
