A Little Place in the Middle of Nowhere.
And that's exactly the point.
Our Story
Built from Scratch. Run with Heart.
Since 1897, this historic property has welcomed miners, travelers, and families to Gibbonsville. Originally established as George Kerns' Brewery during the area's gold mining boom, it became a gathering place for the thriving mining community and a landmark in the Salmon River Valley. In 1926, the property was transformed into a service station, café, general store, and tourist cabins, continuing its tradition of serving those traveling through the region. Over the years, it evolved into the Broken Arrow Resort. In 1989, Ron and Rosemarie Ramey opened Ramey's Broken Arrow Restaurant, building on the property's long tradition of hospitality with homemade recipes, warm service, and a welcoming atmosphere. Today, that tradition continues under the care of their youngest son, who proudly carries on the family legacy of serving delicious food and welcoming guests with the same dedication and hospitality that have defined the Broken Arrow for generations.
We opened our doors with a simple idea: serve honest, homemade Mexican food and give road-trippers and locals alike a place to stop, eat well, and stay a while. The RV sites and cabins came naturally — because once people found us, they didn't want to leave.
Everything that comes out of our kitchen is made from scratch, every single day. We believe in real food made with care, served by people who genuinely love what they do.
