Things To Do
👰♀️Lake Leatherwood City Park 🤵♂️
This is where we're getting married!!! And for good reason- it's where we host community events like the Ecstatic Boogie and Drum Circle, it's where we got engaged 💍, there's a ton of hiking trails, a lake to swim in, epic mountain biking, playground, boats for rent and gorgeous views! Plus, it's mulberry harvesting season in Eureka. We will be staying on-site and we invite you to hang out with us around campfires, hike around and enjoy this lovely place that's so special to us.
🌆Eureka Springs Downtown
Check out historic downtown! Very walkable with tons of great shops, art galleries, cool architecture, 12 historical springs, people making music on the streets, even some hidden fairy trails into the woods. You'll meet interesting people and surely find something fun to explore.
🍺Gravel Bar at Wanderoo Lodge
Live music, drinks and food with a bonfire to gather around. Always a fun time.
🍺Gotahold Brewing
Tons of outdoor games to play on their wooded lot, plus they have craft brews and great tacos! Totally ok to bring kids here as well!
😃Eureka Springs Zipline
This zipline takes you over the woods and creek. It's gorgeous and it will be the perfect time of year!
👻Crescent Hotel Ghost Tours
If you're into it, you might enjoy this ghostly tour of our haunted town! At least that's the local lore. 😉
🚣Trigger Gap Outfitters
The King's River is a great river to paddle on because it's warm enough to swim in. You'll see gorgeous rock bluffs and gravel bars tucked against the woods. Trigger Gap Outfitters will equip you with everything you need to enjoy a day on the river, shuttles included.
🚋Eureka Springs Tram Tours
Eureka Springs is basically Mr. Roger's Hippie Neighborhood- trolley included. The tram tours are a great way to discover Eureka Springs and learn some of the very interesting history of this town.
🎣Parker Bottoms Campground
If you love trout fishing, this is a great place to throw in a line or to put your boat in! Just upstream of Parker Bottoms is what the local fly fishing guides call the honey hole. It's also a very smooth river that is so chill to float down. It's worth checking out! It's very cold, so unless you like cold plunges, don't plan to swim in this one.
🥗So Good Kitchen Eureka
This is Chanel's favorite restaurant and it's seriously the best farm to table, clean eats around! They'll even bring your food next door to you at Brew's, which is an art gallery/ coffee shop/ bar with craft brews on tap! It's where the locals hang.
🥗Local Flavor Cafe
This restaurant is so delicious! I don't care what you order- you will love it.
🥗Grotto Wood-Fired Grill and Wine Cave
This is fine dining in a dimly lit restaurant that has a live spring in it! The food is to die for. Makes for a pretty swanky evening. 💃🥂
📖Eureka Springs Carnegie Public Library
If you appreciate historical buildings, you will definitely appreciate our library! There's also a lovely garden and 2 springs just down the way.
✝️Christ of the Ozarks
Check out the iconic 100 ft Jesus statue. There's also a petting zoo and a little town of Bethlehem to explore here. This is where the Passion Play, a theatrical experience of Jesus's life, is held. Also, great mountain biking trails across the area.
🪁KaleidoKites
If you have kids, or you just appreciate oddities, unique and interesting things, toys and gag gifts, you have to check this place out.
