    I cant help but think of the Alabama song 'Down Home', when ever I think of this place.

    Off of the main road about a half mile, it is in the country, surrounded by woods.  It is an Authentic log cabin, not a sidewalled look alike, in fact on the menu tells the story about it, and even where the logs are from.

    Upon arrival, you pass by thier little country store room, if you have a little wait, you won't be too bored, but we've never had much of a wait.  The owner, usually does the greeting, he is a down to earth friendly person, might catch you by surprise that he has one arm, but is great at running and helping out with tasks at hand.

    You get seated, and they take drink orders promptly, and serve them in mason jars.  As soon as you order, very quickly they come out with a giant pot of chicken and dumplings, and a unique 'flourpot bread'.

    Yes Bread baked in a clay flour pot, my daughter always loves eating the 'hole'.  Hot and soft, just pull it apart and butter it or if you want they have strawberry butter as well.  The chicken and dumplins are the best you can get, and for that real country style, dip the bread in the dumplin's, that alone is worth the trip.

    And then before you can even finish the dumplins, they come out with the plates; If you get the family style, they come out by the plate fulls, and you take whats on the plates.  Thier other special is Spinach salad.  I cant say much cause I dont like spinach, but my wife and kids always ask for more.

    The chicken, taters/gravy, green beans, corn...  Take a few of the chicken batter pieces and crumble them in the Taters and gravy.

    If it's your birthday, give it a mention, for a special treat.  And if it is winter time, they have a nice warm real life fireplace.

    If in the area this place is a must!!!

    Down home, where they know you by name
    And treat you like family
    Down home, a man's good word and hand shake
    Are all you need
    Folks know if they're falling on hard times
    They can fall back on
    Those of us raised up down home

    Pioneer's Cabin is great. My wife and I have been there a couple times now and both times it was fantastic. On our most recent visit we each had the family style meal. It came with fried chicken, clam strips, catfish and cod filets, green beans, corn, bread (in a flower pot), chicken & dumplings, mashed potatoes and salad. Everything is all-you-can-eat.

    This is not a typical buffet, where you get a ton to eat, but none of it is particularly good. The food is just great. The fried chicken is perfectly cooked and tender. The dumplings and mashed potatoes are homemade. No canned or instant here. I had at least 3 helpings of salad, it's awesome. I asked the owner if he'd be willing to give my wife his salad dressing recipe. (The answer was no, but they do sell it.)

    The staff is very friendly and attentive. We will be back. It is worth the 90 minute drive. If we lived closer I'm sure we would eat here much more than we should.

    Family Style Dining is big around here: this includes breakfast (all you can eat eggs, bacon, sausage, biscuit and gravy, and fried taters), and dinners. Sandwiches, burgers, salads, quick and easy specials including roasts, fish or chicken are always available.

    Family style dinners mostly include fried chicken and that evening's special (baked ham, pork roast, meatloaf, baked turkey, roast beef, or BBQ pork ribs). Plus all the dumplings, veggies of the day, salad, flower pot bread you can eat. And do not forget the dessert (strawberry rhubarb pie for me, cobblers, brownies, cakes, other pies, ice cream desserts (sundaes), root beer floats and more).

    Old rustic cabin, although newly built, has a good atmosphere, with all the waitstaff dressed old-timey outfits/ style, genuine hospitality, delicious real iced tea served in pint or quart jars.

    They do have a regular menu if you are a smaller group or not wanting the fixed menu family style offerings: grilled meats, post roasts, Country Fried Chicken, fish, shrimp, chicken and more.

    Just leave room for dessert.
