Atop Arkansas's second highest peak, this cloud-capped
hideaway reigns above the Ouachita Mountains. Located on the Talimena
Scenic Drive, the park is as rich in history as in scenery. In the
late 1800s, a resort hostelry named Queen Wilhelmina Inn in honor
of the Queen of the Netherlands was built on Rich Mountain by the
Kansas City, Pittsburg and Gulf Railroad. Two inns have replaced
the original "Castle in the Sky"--the latest is this park's
focal point. The lodge offers 38 guest rooms including two Queen's
Rooms with fireplaces and two Regent's Rooms with spa tubs. Enjoy
the Queen's Treasury gift shop. The Queen's Restaurant serves delicious
Southern cuisine daily.
