There is nothing like this place, off the main road (dirt road to get to it), and then opens up to old homesteads straight out if the 1860's.. bar is classic old school from the gold rush days. Nice patio outback that looks over meadows and the sierras.

Never in a million years would I expect to find the quintessential dive bar in THE MIDDLE OF NOWHERE! This little joint is the bomb-dignity. And, when I say that, I mean it! If you like dive bars like I do, well my friend, you are in for a treat!! Rance, the bartender/general manager of the entire property (they have rustic cabins for rent and a campground (also rustic) for your lodging needs) knows a metric ton of history of the property (40 acres) and its multiple owners. Originally, it was a stopover for horse ridden and drawn wagons back in the day headed east and west. If only the walks could talk!?!?!
They have events that are becoming quite popular including Red-neck Olympics which have multiple games including frozen pea spitting contests. They are completely off grid, utilizing solar and generators for power needs.
This is a hidden gem that you need to check off the box with.
Cheers friends!!

I haven't been here since it was a one room cabin. 1979. A bar, 3 bar stools, an old 50s fridge, NEHI soda and a 6 pack of beer. One old man in rocker in front of wood stove-it was lit. 80 degrees outside in August. 110 inside lol.
It's grown. One day love to revisit

We came here in 1980,81,82. It was a one room cabin . Bar with 3 bar stools- one behind the bar. An old 50'S fridge, 6 pack nehih soda, 6 pack beer(I think Olimpa). The elderly man had to be 80 plus. We chatted a bit with him. The cabin behind had an outside shower. I think he said primitive over 100 years. Dirt road in. Single lanes mostly. And you couldn't get in there in winter. Snow! Memories going there were great.

Such a cool bar!!!! This place caters to the off road community. Has lots of cool history that goes back to the gold rush era. They now have starlink and can take credit cards. Can beer only. The staff is all volunteers and vey friendly and take great care of the place. You can rent 2 of the cabins just be warned they are off grid and REALLY rustic.

Uhm…it’s my Uncle Toms Cabin. I love it here. Foods great cuz I brought it. Service is top notch, order a beer and open it myself (wouldn’t have it any other way)! Atmosphere, you guys….. it’s all around you, you’re at the base of the Rubicon. Fresh air and beautiful scenery surrounds. Rance is the og and Sierra and Fred are both so nice and accommodating! Don’t park in front and tip heavy. Don’t tell your friends.

Reach out before you go!

Good luck figuring out when they're open. We did a backcountry motorcycle trip, planned out our days/stays based on visiting Uncle Tom's. We were prepped to tip very well!
Another person showed up while we were waiting and said they were closed the last five times they tried to visit!
Signs on the road say they're open.
Their Facebook shows they're open year round.

After we made it to a place that had reception, one of our crew found out you can arrange a time if you're visiting during a weekday...

Fun beers!!! And the bartender is epic and the beer is colder than ice Freon nitrogen!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Joe Gordon

Uncle Tom’s Cabin is a gem. Hidden deep in the hills this place is a great pit stop going to or from the Rubicon, or a great destination. The beers are cold and cheap. If it’s crowded inside there is a porch and fire pit outside. No food so bring your own.
