Fall Foliage Forecast

The predictions are in and the Farmers Almanac predicts that Arkansas will see its fall color from October 19th thru November 5. Experience tells me that the October 19th date will be for the higher elevations with our best color coming perhaps as early as October 26th. It seems we are about a week behind the higher elevations. However, please remember that Mt. Magazine is the highest elevation in the state so the color up there will be a week or more ahead of what we have down here on the farm. We had a great show of colors on Short Mountain for our guests to enjoy while relaxing on our front porch that faces the mountain. It is also an easy drive up the 'Pig Trail' scenic highway into the Ozark mountains so you should be able to find some good color anytime during late October and early November.

Also, this year we are changing our inn policy a bit. We are offering full breakfast only on weekends. For our weekday guests, we have a nice continental breakfast with coffee bar, juices, fresh fruit, cereal, and breakfast breads. In response to our many guests who are staying with us while visiting local family, guests may also request a room rate without any breakfast. Let us know your needs and we will gladly try to accommodate them.
