As we know, Eureka means, “I have found (it).” The expression first gained fame when Archimedes exclaimed it thousands of years ago, and has since been widely used. Our town of Eureka Springs was named by Burton (Buck) Saunders: the discovery he was referring to were the healing waters of the natural springs here. Certainly the waters were the reason people had first been drawn to the area, and why they stayed (along with the fabulous hunting, fishing, and of course beauty of the place).
“Eureka” may also be appropriately exclaimed when true love is found; I know that’s how I felt when I found it. When you are ready to declare your love to one another in front of witnesses, why not do it in Eureka Springs? Our bed and breakfast is wonderfully situated to host your Arkansas wedding. We offer the elegance of a Queen Anne Victorian Mansion and the beauty of our location nestled in the Ozark Mountains. Your Eureka Springs Wedding at our bed and breakfast may be based around one of several affordable wedding packages, or choose what you like from our offerings. Of utmost importance to us is that your wedding be what you want it to be, and that it is stress free.

One of the top things to do when traveling is dining out, and it is one of our favorite things at Arsenic & Old Lace as well! Eureka Springs is home to many terrific restaurants, but our favorite and that of many locals is Café Soleil. It is casual and elegant at the same time and offers a fusion of International and contemporary American cuisine. You can order anything and thoroughly enjoy it!
One of my personal favorites is Beef Blue. Beef Blue is a beef flank steak marinated with the juice of three citruses and then grilled to perfection. The steak is presented on a bed of field greens and then generously topped with their homemade blue cheese dressing. Lovely! Of course, the next thing on my must have list is their homemade hand cut French fries. What can I say?
If you are not a beef eater, another recommendation is their grilled salmon salad. The salmon actually is cut into the shape of a salmon resting atop of a bed of fresh lettuce and caramelized onions. Absolutely fantastic! Or try the old Chicago Sandwich which features grilled ham with slaw, Swiss cheese, and a spicy remoulade sauce on a garlic toasted bun.
Dining in Eureka Springs is sure to tempt your taste buds!

Get to know a side of Eureka Springs you may not have encountered before.
You Probably Won't See This Guy...
A city like Eureka Springs has a long history, and there are places in the city where you can take Eureka Springs Ghost Tours. Meander through the city’s historic cemetery and learn about Potter’s Field, Woodmen of the World, buried icons and folk legends.
Or visit the Crescent Hotel, a legendary Victorian Hotel that is known for the mysterious happenings on the grounds and in the guestrooms. A tour group is located in the Crescent Hotel in Suite 212. They are well-versed in the legends of the Lady in the Garden, the Nurses, Michael & Theodora. Follow them under the hotel into dark pathways to unrealized goals and dreams.
We hope to help you find everything to satisfy your curiosity while here at our Eureka Springs AR bed and breakfast.

Imagine a building nestled in the Ozark Mountains that is 425 feet tall with over 6,000 sq. ft. of glass and has dimensions of 24 feet by 60 feet. That is exactly what you will find when you visit the Thorncrown Chapel. Thorncrown Chapel was designed by world renowned architect E. Fay Jones. His inspiration for Thorncrown Chapel was Sainte Chappelle, Paris’ light filled gothic chapel. Fay affectionately labeled Thorncrown’s style as “Ozark Gothic.” The chapel is made with all organic materials to fit its natural setting. The only steel in the structure forms a diamond shaped pattern in its wooden trusses. The building has a native flagstone floor surrounded with a rock wall which gives the feeling that the chapel is part of its Ozark hillside. Chosen 4th on the AIA’s top designs of the 20th century.
Since the chapel opened in 1980, over five million people have visited this woodland sanctuary. It has won numerous architectural awards such as the American Institute of Architecture’s Design of the Year Award for 1981 and the American Institute of Architecture’s Design of the Decade Award for the 1980′s. Recently, members of the American Institute of Architects placed Thorncrown Chapel fourth on its list of the top buildings of the twentieth century.
Make sure to put it on your list when you visit!
