Food scene
Double R&P is a great local restaurant that is literally in the middle of nowhere. It is about 9 miles east of the cabin on Chewey Rd (604 Rd). The atmosphere is fun and the scenery is beautiful pasture land and hills. On the way there, you'll see a small herd of longhorn cattle and if you're lucky you might see a bald eagle.

A great local diner with wonderful home cooked meals. Monday night is "dollar burger night" and you can't go wrong with the meatloaf dinner. It is very reasonably priced and friendly staff.

A local hangout and a short drive from the cabin is Bathtub Rocks. The natural formation of rocks includes lots of crevices that look like "bathtubs". It is a fun place to sit in the cold water and enjoy the uniqueness of nature's creation. It is rather difficult to give written directions but if you have GPS, it will take you there. Please ask your property owner for directions if you need them. BATH TUB ROCKS ARE TEMPORARILY CLOSED. Please contact your host for updates.
