Hidden gem! Interesting and beautiful. Staff does a great job organizing and conducting the cave tour. Our granddaughter was amazed seeing a real cave as well as the waterfall right down the road. It was a gorgeous fall day for exploring all the surroundings in Blanchard Springs and Mountain View.

Awesome place to visit! So many helpful and informative artists. Want to go back already. Many thanks to the printer (oh how I love books and the printed word!), the broom maker, the beeswax soap and candle maker, the textile expert and the docent at the log cabin for your time, knowledge and joy of your crafts!

We are Montanans who traveled to Northern Arkansas for some early season fly fishing. A local angler recommended this as an opportunity to see local culture and what an opportunity it was! If you have an interest in some genuine Deep South Americana and great, old time, historical country music and culture, do not miss this place!

I was looking for a great place to take pictures, so went down a path to get to a good spot to photograph the waterfalls. I was pleasantly surprised by the old mill! Great spot, even when the heat and humidity are so terrible.

Me and my aunt went horseback riding here and it was the best decision we made. We went for the 2 hour ride and hope to come back and go longer. Very scenic and fun the trails are a little difficult for beginners but not hard. I was on rocky a brown appleoosa as my aunt was on a dark brown quarter horse named moon. It was super fun request shay. Shay was are guide she was super nice and answered all the questions we had. Even though we ride near the road we a good distance from the road. We had a great time will be back soon!!!!????????????????????????????. In the picture I am on the left my aunt is on the right and shay is in the middle.
