My Log Cabin Dream

After posting the acreage near Vichy, I had to come back and post pictures of the log cabin I would love to build on land like that.

This log cabin is actually one of several you can stay in and I recommend that you do.  It is Tall Pines Inn in Eureka Springs, Arkansas.  It is the coziest and most comfortable place I've ever been in.  I felt totally at home.  And it lives up to its name as there are tall pines everywhere.

I could actually make this a complete home.  You can't see it in the picture, but there's room in one corner for a small kitchen.  Small house living or tiny houses are becoming increasingly popular.  I never expected to become part of the movement, but truth is, I'd be very comfortable in a space this small.  I'd love the savings in utilities!

Another thing I wanted to point out about the Maries County land is that the open space and open hill remind me of the dairy farms I love driving by in the Ozarks.  When I lived there full-time, I really took to seeing the cows in the open pastureland with a few trees randomly about and then framed by the thick forests all around.

Beautiful Lot in Eureka Springs, Arkansas

There's this lot in Eureka Springs that I'm head over heels for.  I'd love to buy it and it is a steal at $5,500.  Here's some pictures of it.  If you go to Kind Regards on HubPages, I've written an article that includes a picture of a house and the houseplans I've created for it.  It's listed through K-C Realty.

Enjoy the holidays everyone.  Happy New Year!

Eureka Springs, Arkansas

I wrote an article about my trip to Eureka Springs, Arkansas.  It is such a fun and colorful town.  It is a must visit for everyone.  I've never seen anywhere like it.

Here's some of the streets.

Here's some of the amazing architecture you'll see around town.

Here's how you get to many of the shops, galleries and restaurants.  This one goes to my favorite restaurant, the Oasis.

Here's one of the many springs the historical town is noted for.

There's a pavilion and park right in the heart of downtown where musicians play for free.

There's so many grand and beautiful hotels in Eureka Springs and some are reportedly haunted.

Tall Pines Inn

This is one of the stills I took of ES&NA, the Eureka Springs and North Arkansas Railway.  I like how it came out.

Here is an old building mural advertising the magnificent Crescent Hotel and it's ballroom restaurant, the Crystal Dining Room.  It has become the logo for my blog.

The second mural for the Crescent Hotel is pictured in the right-hand column for sending me an email.  But since it is hard to see that small, here it is in a larger size.

I just love the murals in Eureka Springs.
