EXPLORE
Eureka Springs is a historically rich area, full of sites for the family to see and enjoy. This area has been drawing tourist attention for some time now, and the traces of the past are captivating.
Our family loves to explore the area and walk through the charming shops that populate the town. Hours of fun could be spent just looking around the area. There are hole-in-the-wall restaurants and thrift shops along with art exhibits and darling natural wells.
Just in back of the cabin, there are acres of land that can be explored privately by you and your family. If you are lucky you will find the beautiful, naturally-occurring rock formations that are nestled in the woods on the upper side of the hill.
