This place has an amazing little story that many folks, even locals, do the know.
Most folks are familiar with the twin stonework chimneys just north of highway 138, but there is much more to this place. The community once boasted more than 1,000 residents and stretches on for a mile.
The paths and ruins extend further north, including a stone lined water trough. Directly opposite the hotel, across the highway, are many orderly mounds that served as tent or shack bases.
If you look straight south from the hotel, you can see a large silo which is also part of the ruins. This is accessible by an unpaved road off 165th. There are more buildings near the silo, including a fantastic stonework dairy barn.
