Three Weekend Getaways in Driving Distance of Fayetteville, AR
Flamingo Springs Trailer Resort
If glamping sounds like fun, you’ll love exploring Flamingo Springs’ vintage-themed trailer campground in the woods of Prairie Grove, AR at 15475 Greasy Valley Road. This is not a campground where you bring your own RV; you’ll stay in permanently parked restored vintage campers. Each camper has been decorated in a theme, so you can always find something that suits your mood and makes you smile.
Flamingo Springs offers a host of amenities, including a pool, lawn games, a BB gun shooting range, vintage video game systems, and more. There are also more practical amenities like a prep kitchen, bathroom facilities, and indoor recreation spaces. You’ll be able to fit everything you need to semi-rough it in your Volkswagen Atlas.
Beaver Lake View Resort
To get closer to nature, head to Beaver Lake View Resort at 3034 Mundell Road in Eureka Springs, AR. With a view of the gorgeous Beaver Lake, you’ll have the option of the Roadrunner Inn or log cabins with a hot tub, private kitchens, and a wraparound porch where you can breathe the fresh air.
Bring your boat and your dog and relax in nature without sacrificing modern amenities. Spend the day on the lake, then come back to barbeque in the picnic areas. There is plenty of wildlife and bird watching, and excellent WiFi and Satellite TV to unwind in the cabins at night.
Rocky Branch Resort
If you’re a fan of Schitt’s Creek, you’ll appreciate this renovated 1960s roadside motel on a scenic drive through the Ozark Mountains at 20510 Park Road in Rogers, AR. In addition to the remodeled classic drive-up motel, there are vintage trailers, deluxe cabins, and an RV pad if you’re towing your own.
Near Hobbs State Park and Beaver Lake, there is an abundance of outdoor activities, including hiking, mountain biking, and fishing. If you’d prefer to stick a little closer to your cabin, there is a swimming pool and recreation area with space to play. The accommodations offer a range of amenities, depending on the size of your group and what you want to do, so you can find what you need to make your weekend everything you want it to be.
If you’re feeling like you need a break, it’s a great time to explore the area and get a little relaxation. Stop by Crain Volkswagen of Fayetteville today to take a closer look at our lineup to get ready for your next weekend road trip.
