here's a project I actually completed! I combined 2 sets of Gone With The Wind plates (from my friend Martha and my mom), a $10 dresser I bought for KJ that was just too hopeless to fix, and leftover paint from Katie's last room makeover. I did buy a set of small paintbrushes & 2 cheap DG frames. everything else was here.

I am rather pleased with the result!

Calico Rock, Arkansas. this is where Joe Ray from The Boonies walks to get his supplies, 8 miles from his cave home.

We plan to re-open for the 2016 season around April 1, 2016.

If you get a chance, check out Calico Rock’s newest and hottest dining, the Printing Press Café on Main Street. (and yes, our grandson, Lee, is the head chef)

We use only 100% cotton sheets, towels, and other linens and dry them in the sun on the clothesline out back.

This is a mom and pop business. There’s no business manager or receptionist.

Our target audience is guests that appreciate historic hotels. If you’re interested in outdoor activities or local music, we’ll be happy to provide suggestions from our more than 20 years’ experience in the area.

While there are 3 motels on the highway, we’re the only hotel in Calico Rock and the only downtown lodging that overlooks the river.
