Once you feel nicely relaxed and filled with energy from the nature, it's time to head to a rescue center. This non-profit place was founded in 1991. They take in wild cats whom have been abused in some way and need a permanent home. Be amazed when you explore the second-largest big cat rescue area and see a variety of wild cats.

The places surrounding Lake Monroe are filled to the brim with hiking trails, places to fish, you can canoe in the lake, or you can just wander out in the nature that touches the pristine lake.

    Exotic Feline Rescue Center

    The first steps into the area filled me with awe and wonder. Many of the wild cats could tell a story just by how they looked. There's even a blind snow tiger there. This center was created in 1991 with just three wild cats and now it has turned into over 100. The cats are from 10 different breeds as well.

    Dorsett Nissan

    This Auto shop also has charging stations. But the catch is you can only use the charging station when it's open. The service part of the business closes earlier than the whole shop. So, they have different hours. If you did'nt have the chance to charge your vehicle at the first stop all the way, you have the chance here.
    Opening Hours: Monday- Saturday: 9:00 am- 6:00 pm Sunday: Closed
