With some terrific day trip options available in the surrounding area, having your own car makes good sense. Without one, it wouldn’t be half as easy to explore all that Eureka Springs, 20 miles away, has to offer. Thorncrown Chapel, Great Passion Play Amphitheater and Beaver Dam Site Park alone make the drive out worthwhile. Situated 25 miles away, Garfield is another popular choice. If you swing by, be sure to check out Starkey Park, Pea Ridge National Military Park and Indian Creek Park.
