Headed there in June. Does anyone have any recommendations on places to stay?
Thanks
I’d get a VRBO Or AirBnB in Holiday Island or somewhere on the lake and river system. Beautiful scenery and peaceful. About a 15-20 minute drive into town. Eureka is quite crowded with a ton of cheap cheap motels. Very charming place, though. We we’re there last Thanksgiving.

while there go 23 south to withrow springs state park, west side of the road just south of the visitor center is a small picnic area with a natural spring, pick some watercress and try the water (won't hurt ya, comes out of the ground right there), ice cold and the watercress is pretty tasty.
kings river east on 62 was great fishin as a kid, fathers side of the family was from there, spent 14 summers there on the farm.

Went ahead and booked it. You'd make a great used car salesman.

I jokingly mentioned it as we qualified for a championship tournament on Beaver Lake several years back. We get into town and stop to grab a bite to eat. We kept seeing a ton of guys in pairs. We headed to Wal Mart in Rogers in buy fishing licenses and the clerk asked where we were staying we answered Eureka Springs. I told him it looked like we would have a huge turnout since we had seen so many teams. He laughed and enlightened us as to why we were seeing so many.
Beautiful area, friendly and all in all a great place to visit.

I already have to make excuses for why my wife's brother and "friend" are always together to my 8 year old...
We stayed here last year. Beautiful views of the lake, covered fishing pier and they provide all the tackle. The cabins are fantastic.

Decided on this. Got a cabin there. Have not been there in 28 years. I had been thinking about staying there but didn't realize it was as close as it is.
