Yes you can enjoy a country buffet in the country, in Treutlen County, Georgia. Drive in at Cowboy Carey's Convenience Barn for country cooking and a variety of country needs. It's located at the intersection of two state highways, GA 46 and GA 199, the latter being one of the most historic roads in the county.

The old river road developed from the trails of the Native Americans, and became a dirt road for the early farmer-settlers, the route through Lothair, a substantial community before the county seat of Soperton on the new railroad (circa 1900). The owners are descendants of the local pioneer families. Cowboy Carey's is known for its neighborliness.

Even before entering the building, the glass windows and doors are alive as a community bulletin board.

The nearby Oconee River provides fish and game, such as the feral hog.

The latest catches are posted on the walls.

A group of working men lined up at the lunch buffet. Tuesday night the specialty is steak, and Friday is for fish and shrimp.

Jack and Grace Sweat, renowned for their popular barbecue restaurant on I-16 in Treutlen County for decades, now retired, enjoy good local food.

Over in the Maverick section are two of the Crow-Mart crowd, who visit Cowboy Carey's frequently.
