房源位置

Nestled in the Ozark Mountains in the center of Chester, Arkansas: a small town of approximately 150 people set along the A&M railroad, our inn is the antidote for the status quo. The Beard and Lady Inn is surrounded by the Ozark National Forest where nature enthusiasts can summit the highest peaks in the Ozark Mountains. With over 1.2 million acres to explore, hikers, bikers, canoers, hunters, UTV riders, and campers have access to endless excursions. Chester began as a timber town on Frisco, the St. Louis-San Francisco Railway. What followed was an unpredictable story of growth, fire, floods, and redemption.
Our inn offers space for contemplation, curiosity, and memory making. There are no screens, but you can stay and read a book, ride a train, walk the creek across the street, play a game, have a mountain bike or side by side adventure and send a postcard in our small post-office. We are within walking distance to Clear creek, the Chester Country Cafe, and 6 miles from the Buckhorn OHV Trail system for amazing side by side riding. We are minutes from Lake Fort Smith (hiking, biking, canoeing, fishing), 30 min to Fayetteville and Fort Smith, and 7 minutes into Mountainburg. Try quail, chukar, and pheasant hunting at Quail Mountain Hunting Preserve on the adjacent mountain.

The inn is in Chester, Arkansas which is located along the A&M railroad between Fort Smith and Fayetteville, AR right off I-49 and not far from I-40.
