If you walk through the red-carpeted lobby of the Crescent Hotel, past the limestone fireplace bedecked with stone owls, through the towering French doors, and onto the sweeping back porch, you’ll find a fantastic view. The hotel grounds are perfectly landscaped and harken back to Victorian times where women walked with parasols and tea was […]
Today’s post is going to be short and sweet! This attraction is a little different, because it’s a place that’s more than a roadside attraction, but not a full blown let’s-spend-hours-here kind of attraction either. Whatever it is, it’s definitely worth stopping at if you are near Eureka Springs, AR! Thorncrown Chapel is a beautiful little church located off Highway 62, the same highway as Inspiration Point, which I have previously posted about. It’s made out of wood and glass and settled in the midst of a beautiful wooded area. I’ve seen other churches that have glassed walls like this, but this one is unique because of the surrounding forest. When I first sat in this chapel the glass was so clean and clear I actually was wondering if there was any glass behind the pulpit at all! According to Thorncrown’s website, this chapel contains 425 windows and over 6,000 square feet of glass. The chapel was originally built to give traveler’s a place to relax and enjoy the surrounding nature – which is exactly what we did! The chapel is located a mile and a half west of Eureka Springs, and is open April through November. They host weddings and Sunday services throughout this time. The couple of times I’ve been here they had volunteers inside the chapel to give out informational fliers. When I came with my parents, the volunteer got up and played us a song on the piano that she had written herself, which was kind of cool! There have always been other visitors here when I have come, but I have never considered it to be crowded. I think it’s a fun little stop and a very interesting chapel to look at if you are in the Eureka Springs area! I know we have always enjoyed it! Leave me a comment and let me know what you think!! Until next time!

I moved to Kansas City, Missouri from Fullerton, California in June of 2016 because of an exciting opportunity to serve in a local church. Ministry is no walk in the park however, and I found myself needing some rest and rejuvination halfway through 2017. I knew I needed a vacation and felt I could spare a vacation day to create a long weekend. The problem was, I had just moved and really didn't know the area. So I asked around and when the name Eureka Springs kept popping up I knew it had to be
