You should stay. 

 

We have rooms available for you at a discounted rate in both the Crescent Hotel and the Best Western Eureka Inn. You are also welcome to explore many other lodging options in the area including historic hotels, bed and breakfasts, and treehouses. We encourage you to spend the weekend with us not only as a guest at our wedding, but to experience the unique and breathtaking city of Eureka Springs. Tucked into a deep Ozark hollow between East and West Mountains is an eclectic and refreshing city that has drawn vistors for hundreds of years due to its healing springs and sacred ground.  

 

According to legend, Native Americans considered the valley’s springs to possess healing qualities, and various cultures visited the springs for this sacred purpose. All springs in the town are cold-water springs, and there are more than 140 of them. As word of Eureka's miraculous, healing waters began to spread, thousands of individuals decided to call this town home. By late 1879, the estimated population of Eureka Springs reached 10,000 people and in 1880 Eureka Springs was incorporated as a city. 

 

In the 1960s, the city again attracted attention, this time for its low cost of real estate. Many of the decade's social revolutionaries came looking for a beautiful, easy-living place to settle. In time, the resulting influx of artistic, counter-culture hippies permanently changed the face of Eureka Springs. An arts community developed and with it, a culture unique to the Ozarks. Here, in the heart of the nation’s Bible belt are vibrant Greenwich leftists rubbing shoulders with “Area 51 type” paranormal enthusiasts, all mixed with traditional Ozarkers.

 

Eureka Springs, notable for its careful preservation of the beautiful Victorian era architecture, also revels in its ghost stories, its UFO conferences and its irreverent post-sixties’ nature. The Crescent Hotel is listed by some as "America's Most Haunted Hotel" and and is said to be haunted by at least eight spirits. The entire city is on the national register of historic places.

 

We hope you find this town as magical and enchanting as we do. We look forward to seeing you and hope you will stay, relax, and celebrate with us!
