Eureka Springs, Arkansas Road Trip

SHCC Eureka Springs, Arkansas Road Trip

 

Mark your Corvette calendar for a really exciting 5 night road trip to Eureka Springs, Arkansas, June 10-15, 2021, led by Mark and Cheryl Kelly.

 

The first night we will be staying at the Holiday Inn Express in Durant, Oklahoma.  For entertainment the Choctaw Casino is just a mile from the hotel.

Then on to Northwest Arkansas, where we will spend three unforgettable nights in Eureka Springs, at the Quality Inn by Choice Hotels.

 

Eureka Springs includes pristine winding roads with elevation changes taking you through incredible scenic areas! Downtown Eureka Springs is just minutes away from the hotel and is best described as a small historical town with lots of unique gift shops, places to eat, and of course saloons! There are numerous attractions around Eureka Springs and the drives to each are very scenic.

 

Beaver Lake with its crystal clear blue water, tall trees and log cabins, is a must see for its serenity and uniqueness. To spend some time on the lake, rent a Pontoon boat for a half or full-day at Starkey Marina. Check out the details on their website below.

 

War Eagle Mill is one of the oldest working gristmills. Tour the red mill to see how it grinds organic grains into flours and corn meals.

 

Thorncrown Chapel is nestled in a woodland setting, rising forty-eight feet into the Ozark sky. This magnificent wooden structure contains 425 windows and over 6,000 square feet of glass. It sits atop over 100 tons of native stone and colored flagstone, making it blend perfectly with its setting. The chapel's simple design and majestic beauty combine to make it what critics have called "one of the finest religious spaces of modern times."

 

War Eagle Cavern on Beaver Lake has tours lead by expert guides on the easy, wide open pathway along the edges of the stream that flows throughout the cavern. The path on this breathtaking adventure wanders throughout huge rooms while the guide explains the incredible “domes” and other formations located in this huge cavern.

 

On the way back home Monday, we will have another night’s stay at the Holiday Inn Express in Durant. All these hotels have secure parking lots. We highly suggest you reserve your rooms ASAP as they typically fill up quickly.  The websites are listed below.

 

We will meet at the Cracker Barrel parking lot on the west side of I-45 in Conroe at 9:30 AM and wheels rolling at 10 AM. Please bring a radio if you have one, along with a full tank of gas. The drive time to Durant is about five hours including a couple of rest stops. We plan to leave Durant the next day around 9 AM and the drive time to Eureka Springs is about six hours including a couple stops.

 

We have a block of 15 rooms for each night at the Holiday Inn Express, for $89 +taxes. Call the number below to get the group rate. Rooms booked after 5/27/2021, will be charged at the regular room rate, so recommend you book early.
