Chicken Creek Store & Lodging — Restaurant in Vian

Okay I'm biased cuz I've only been to the place once and it was at the suggestion of one of the owners. But I had a really really good brisket, sandwich and simple side salad. But the better thing about this place for me was the small town feel and the people that run it. The conversation we had was amazing and I also got to meet meet some of the kids and play guitar together. The thing is is we're all California transplants here in Oklahoma and the kind of quality of life you have is different here. It's much more personal and natural and immune to all the nastiness of the big city. The store is not like really super impressive or anything but it's super practical for the community has just a little bit of everything a local convenience store should have except for all the candy and high fructose corn syrup which I highly recommend to stay away from.

Food: everything from the grill is fresh and delicious. Breakfast or lunch, you won’t leave disappointed. Best biscuits and gravy of my life! It’s a small family owned business with a lot of charm and a ton of heart. The owners are wonderful and clearly have great relationships with locals and regulars.

Lodging: the cabin was spotless, modern, and so comfortable. It had a mini fridge, microwave, coffee maker, TV, and full bath. The bed was soooo comfortable. This place was the perfect country get away. Quiet, charming, incredible hosts who made us feel right at home. Can’t wait...

Family owned and operated less than a mile from the beautiful Lake Tenkiller! Right up the road from the boat dock with easy access to pull in and fuel. Perfect place for a pit stop for gas, snacks and bait. We stayed in cabin number 4 recently and number 5 on a separate occasion. They were both comfy and affordable! The creek runs right through the property! The owners here go above and beyond to make sure you're well taken care of! Do yourself a favor and order one of their delicious breakfast or lunch items at the grill while you're there! We are looking forward to many...
