Ah, there’s nothing quite like spending a cool afternoon in the mountains, feeling a soft breeze move through the trees, and smelling that fresh pine air. If the only thing that would make a day like this better is a tasty meal, you’re in for a treat! We’re looking at one restaurant that sits inside a national forest and serves some mighty fine meals.

Old County Inn, located among the towering Ponderosas of Pine, is one pizzeria you have to visit if you're traveling through Rim Country.

The restaurant has a modern decor that is both industrial and fresh, making this place stand out from a typical mountain town restaurant.
