Fantastic restaurant and hotel. Although we hope you stay with us, The Willcox Hotel is an excellent choice. Call ahead for dinner reservations as the restaurant is a must for dinner! Fantastic lounge atmosphere with excellent drinks for a more casual evening or book a table in the dining room for a proper evening.

A historical and local secret! The Track Kitchen is a small, quaint restaurant located in the heart of the historic horse district. During the winter season you will be blessed with sights of horses everywhere and from all disciplines! The locals come to eat Mrs. Carol's famous pancakes or one of her other breakfast options. Then take a walk on one of the famous dirt roads. Simple Pleasure...
