This popular rest stop on the Louisville-Taylorsville stage route was famous hotel and tavern for many years. Built ca. 1838 by Frederick B. Mathis, this 20-room brick structure was later owned by Isaiah Yocum, Confederate veteran, who settled here after Civil War. For 58 years he and his wife Kate served guests, calling them to meals by bell atop the hotel.
