| Kawkawlin Country House: almost perfect |
A country house sounds like the sort of place where Martha Stewart might spend a happy afternoon gathering eggs from contented free-range chickens.
The Kawkawlin Country House, for instance, sits across from an old feed store that might be described as shabby chic and next to railroad tracks that curve off longingly into woods.
But inside one afternoon, instead of Martha crafting dainty tarts, we found Jamie from Crump ("I'll kick your ass from stump to stump," she joked) behind the bar, popping tabs off beer cans.
And if you're looking for a country house, you might drive right past this low-slung concrete block building. If you do, though, you'll miss a friendly bar with cheap beers that's a great spot to shoot pool -- a more traditional bar than some of the snazzier and noisier places in Bay City.
