Old Mill Music Festival

Old Mill Music Festival sets roots music from several genres against an old sawmill in Kennard, in the heart of the Davy Crockett National Forest. The draw is music, camping, eating, and a good fire under an East Texas sky, and each evening ends with a called barndance. Davy Crockett Grill serves barbecue sandwiches, potatoes, and sausage wraps, and adds a pot of chili and beans if the weather drops. Tent camping and hot showers are on the property.

Our take: Eat at Davy Crockett Grill, and ask for the chili and beans if the East Texas evening turns cold.
