A five minute walk will have you in downtown Buena Vista. A two minute walk will put in in the McPhelemy Park and the Eddyline Brewery and Restaurant. The Park has playground equip. and a lake with a with a waterfall that is lit up at night. The local Lion's Club stocks the trout in the lake each season and is open to all to fish with no license needed. We hope a family member will be able to say "I caught my first fish in Buena Vista!" All of our kids and grandkids have enjoyed this. We have provided a few fishing poles, tackle box and worms can be bought at the local gas stations. Please leave equipment and clean bucket behind. Grandma doesn't like the fish to be cleaned in her sink, please do outside with hose and dispose of properly.
Near the Town Lake is the historic Train Depot and Caboose which will be open in the summer months. Continuing east across the highway will lead you into East Main Business District where you will find all kinds of gifts and antique shops, art galleries, Lobacks bakery (glazed donuts and longjohns, Grandpa's favorites), Heritage Museum (Grandma went to school there long ago) and numerous restaurants. Continue east and you will find a pedal park, tennis courts, softball field , and picnic area. Then the great reward, the majesty of the mighty Arkansas River with an arching footbridge over the water. Once you have crossed over please enjoy the Barbra Whipple Walking Trail and biking trails over Midland.
After you return back to Grandma's house, if you would like to go west (towards the mountains), drive approximately 3 miles and you will find the Comanche Movie Drive- In, (opened in 1966 by the Groy family). Take a blanket, a folding chair and a treat to eat and sit outside under the stars and watch a great movie. Grandpa says it doesn't get any better than that! If you travel straight past the drive-in approx. 2 miles you will find the Cottonwood Hot Springs Resort, natural hot springs that you can soak in. Straight past that approx. 2 miles is the turnoff for Cottonwood Lake. You will arrive after 3 miles to a beautiful peaceful serene mountain lake.
After you return to Grandma's House you might like to plan a trip to Mt. Princeton Hot Springs where you can soak in the river with hot water seeping from the ground or swim in the pool. The Jumpin Good Goat Dairy has free tours and samples, and you get to pet the goats. They are so cute! See the "Welcome Booklet". We also have an regional airport, golf course, hike one of the Fourteeners, mountain biking, ATVing, and fly fishing.
With the endless amount of adventures in our little mountain town you're bound to have an unforgettable experience when you stay at Grandma & Grandpa's House. We would enjoy a picture drawn by you, to hang on our wall of champions, please sign your name and date (Grandma has a hard time remembering). Paper is in the Welcome Notebook and crayons are in the kitchen drawer. Please take a picture of you and your family or guests enjoying a wonderful adventure, we will place on our bulletin board. We would love to see ya. :)
