The Kentucky Colonel Hotel was a showplace and popular throughout the country for its fried chicken meals in early Broken Arrow days. Col. G. W. built the hotel in 1903. The impressive inn was inviting to rail passengers for years. Vena Hunsecker was an early manager. The Kentucky Colonel was dismantled in 1955.
