from the founders of River ridge inn

OUR STORY

River Ridge Inn was founded in 2001.

"When we "retired" from corporate life, we decided we wanted to move back to Arkansas and do something special for ourselves and the local community. We started with a simple idea for a bed and breakfast and gradually turned it into a Premier Destination for Fly Fishing enthusiasts.

Like a good chef, we found that if we mixed the right ingredients together, we could create something that would attract new guests and bring back old ones. The ingredients were simple, but not easy to find. We decided that we wanted to find the Best Location, build the Best Country Inn, supply the Best Instructors/Guides, and be assured that ALL of Our Guests would Continue to Return. The River Ridge Inn and the people who support it have done exactly that!! Whether you are looking for the best advanced fly fishing instruction, or just want to fish at your own pace and time, or, simply want to relax and use the many available amenities and non-fishing activities, the River Ridge Inn is the Destination for YOU. We hope you enjoy it as much as we did building it."
