Sad news from our neighbors in Eureka Springs. My wife and I were married at the Crescent Hotel back before our family owned the Lodge. Rest peacefully.

Fireworks show in Lost Bridge as seen from one of our hotel room balconies.

(I’m sorry for the video quality, I took it with my not so new anymore iPhone 14.)

Another year of beautiful fireworks here in Lost Bridge Village!

(They were prettier than this, but I took some photos with my 4 year old iPhone so I could share with folks who may have missed it this year!)

View is from a hotel room balcony.

There has been some confusion regarding the fireworks and who is allowed to be on the property here at the Lodge.

As is the case for the vast majority of hotels all across the country, only registered hotel guests are allowed to be on Whitney Mountain Lodge property, including the parking area.

Some years we have events, and during those events the event guests are also allowed to be on the property, of course. This year, there is no event hosted on our property and so only registered hotel guests should be present on the Lodge property (including the various parking areas of ours here atop the mountain.)

When we are hosting a public event, it will always be made clear from our social media posts that a public event is occuring so that you can register for the party.

(Little bear photo from yesterday!)

Good morning and Happy Father’s Day to the fans of Whitney Mountain and Beaver Lake!

We always tend to focus on the private balcony views looking mostly east, but the views off of our south facing decks (the “shared balcony” rooms) are amazing as well.

In other news, we are currently gathering bids in advance of doing some tree trimming which will open these spectacular views up even more! It’s been since before Covid that we last trimmed so they definitely need a bit of work done!

It is important to us that the members of our community know that everyone is welcome here.

Love, commitment, family, and celebration are for everyone, and we are honored to help create meaningful moments for couples and families of all backgrounds, identities, and orientations.

We also recognize why Pride Month remains important. While many people in marginalized communities continue to face criticism, discrimination, and challenges to their rights, Pride is a reminder that every person deserves dignity, respect, safety, and the freedom to live authentically.

To our LGBTQ+ friends, neighbors, couples, families, and guests: You are always welcome here, you are valued here, and we are proud to stand together and celebrate with you.
