We’re loving fall so far in Eureka Springs. We’re still waiting on the last of the fall colors to show themselves, but in the meantime, we think grabbing a glass of wine at Keels Creek Winery is the perfect way to spend an afternoon in Eureka Springs. The small boutique winery shares a space with the Keels Creek Art Gallery, combining two of our greatest loves into one great stop. Better yet, the winery is located just outside of downtown Eureka Springs and less than 10 minutes from our Bed and Breakfast.
Spend your morning indulging in our delicious breakfast, relaxing at the Inn and soaking up our views of the beautiful Ozark Mountains, and shopping in historic downtown Eureka Springs, before wrapping up your day with a delicious glass of wine. If this sounds like your vision of a perfect fall afternoon, too, then book your room at our luxurious Eureka Springs Bed and Breakfast today!
A Fall Afternoon at Keels Creek Winery
The vineyards of Keels Creek Winery, which were first planted in 2004 and 2005, are located just outside of downtown Eureka Springs. Today, the vineyard has 8 acres of planted land, featuring 8 different varietals of grapes. They grow the white grape varietals of Vidal, Vignoles, and Chardonel, and the red grape varietals of Chambourcin Frontenac, Coro Noir, Noiret, and Cabernet Franc.
Since its first year of production, Keels Creek Winery has grown to an annual production rate of 2000 cases. It’s truly a boutique winery, and one that we think produces some excellent wine. Here are 3 great reasons to put a visit to Keels Creek Winery on your itinerary next time you visit Eureka Springs!
- Unlike a lot of wineries that import their grapes from all over the country, Keels Creek Winery specializes in grapes grown in Arkansas. The winery produces boutique wines from grapes grown locally in their Eureka Springs vineyards, along with grapes from three other local vineyards.
- The wine tasting room shares its space with the Keels Creek Art Gallery. There is an incredible range of art from local artists to enjoy while sipping on your favorite wine.
- As we head into the slower season, odds are when you stop in for a wine tasting at Keels Creek Winery, you’ll get personalized service from one of the owners, who are known to be very knowledgable not just about wine, but about Eureka Springs in general! As an added bonus, when the weather cools off a bit, there will be 2 cozy fireplaces to cozy up next to while you sip your new favorite wine.
The Best Eureka Springs Lodging
After you’ve sampled their wines, head back into Eureka Springs for a delightful dinner at one of the town’s extraordinary restaurants. We recommend Le Stick Nouveau, Grotto’s Wood Fired Grill and Wine Cave, or Local Flavor Cafe. As the evening comes to a close, no doubt you’ll be looking for somewhere comfortable to land. Look no further than our luxury Bed and Breakfast, located just 2 blocks from Eureka Springs Historic District! We offer 5 luxuriously appointed guest rooms, the best breakfast in Eureka Springs, and breathtaking views of the scenic Ozark Mountains from our gardens and wrap-around veranda.
