OCTOBER! Really?

Wednesday, October 3rd, 2012

I can’t believe it is already October!  I was running this morning with neighbors (yes, me), and realized how wonderfully cool it was.  When the sun eventually came up, I saw how fantastic the Governor’s Mansion District of the Quapaw Quarter looks bathed in sunlight.  The houses are truly splendid.  And it did make the pain of running at 6:30 am a little more bearable.  But, October?

Arkansas really knows how to do October.  There are just so many outdoor activities, and the festivals!  As the temperatures drop down to the fabulous range, Arkansans come out of the air conditioning.

On Saturday, the 6th, there are the Junction Bridge Regatta Sailboat Exhibition Races.  This pedestrian bridge was just dedicated this time last year and we are already making great use of it with wonderful activities like this.  The Grande Maumelle Sailing Club is putting on the Rowing Exhibition Races on the river.  Music, snacks, and beverages provided, just bring your own chair and enjoy the afternoon.

On the 9th, Need to Breathe will be in concert at Robinson Music Hall; and Tales of the Crypt is going on at Mount Holly Cemetery.  Bassnectar is on the 10th at the River Market Amphitheatre.  Then there is Brad Paisley on the 11th at Verizon.

Between the Haunted Cathedral and World Cheese Dip Championship, there are lot’s of family activities just minutes from Robinwood.  Come visit us and join the fun.

New Year's in Little Rock

Friday, December 18th, 2009

Do something new and different this New Year’s Eve: grab your sweetie and head to our Little Rock lodging for a romantic night together. Whether this is your first New Year’s Eve together, or your fiftieth, you can make it special. We are beginning a new decade, after all, and that seems to call for extraordinary measures. Make the arrival of 2010 something you will both remember for the rest of your lives.

Our Little Rock lodging is located in the Quapaw Quarter – nine square miles of historic area in the heart of the city. You can pass a memorable – and romantic – stay here by doing nothing other than strolling the oak-lined streets hand-in-hand, admiring the rich historic architecture.

There are many excellent restaurants, cafes and bars in the Quapaw Quarter; ask us some of our favorites, or just keep walking until you happen upon a place that strikes your fancy.

The River Market District, also quite close, is another good place to find good food. It may also be the best spot for a wide selection of live music.

You may choose to spend New Year’s Eve out on the town, or you may choose to spend it together at the inn. What is important is that you have decided to take this time to be together, and to celebrate one another as you welcome 2010.

Happy New Year!
