It is a restaurant that is a throw back to 1850 ... the draw here is they are in the middle of nowhere ... way up Beasore Road ... so far in the Sierra National Forest that there is no power and they use a generator to cook. Homemade pie and/or cobbler while sitting on their deck in a beautiful meadow...can't be missed!
