Step back in time with us for a moment to an early 1900's town. The old grocery store is attached to the cafe, the barbershop and Pop's Drug Store are right across the street, the saloon is around one corner, and the church is around the other. Could all this really be in someone's backyard?

In 1938 Mike Barnett's grandparents, L.E. Puckett and Clara, purchased a farm in West Tennessee where the town now resides and moved their sawmill here. After their death, Mike and his wife Cathy remodeled his grandparents' house and the buildings left on the remaining four acres to create a 1900's town. The old smokehouse is now a barbershop and tobacco store. The old brooding house is now a gas station, a cafe, and an old grocery store. There's also a 1920's drug store where you can get real ice cream, a small church suitable for weddings, a saloon, two gas stations, a hardware store, antique cars, and a shoe store currently under construction. One of the favored parts is the log cabins that are rented out regularly as a bed and breakfast. |
