Club 400
Bar
👍 We were in town for geocaching and it was difficult to find a place with outside dining that wasn’t being used. Came across this place and decided to give it a try because of the Les Paul history. Got seated and waitress took our orders. I will admit. Had I remember there was a packer game on today...

👍👍 A great place to visit and see how hard it was for people to live in the 1800s. Even if you had money, it was hard to be a farmer. We went when the car show was there. It was a nice afternoon with fantastic weather. Would do it again to share with my kids.

Deere-Wiman House
Historical landmark
👍👍 The ladies who give the tours were very passionate about the subject matter. It's honestly one of the few places left that do not charge for tours, although I wonder how long they'll be able to keep doing that (considering how much upkeep must be). Can't go wrong for a little local history!
