Our beautiful Arkansas vacation destination is not all fine dining and relaxation. Just outside your door are tennis and pickleball courts, our golf course in Heber Springs, a fitness center, forest trails, and all the fishing, boating, and sunset-watching you dream of on the pristine waters of Greers Ferry Lake.

Come for the fun. Leave with the memories.

Surrounded by the natural beauty of Greer’s Ferry Lake, Eden Isle is a peaceful, relaxing place to treat your entire family to a weekend getaway. Golfers may call in a Tee Box lunch and pick it up at the turn while the rest of the family enjoys lunch in the dining room. End your day enjoying a gourmet meal in our main dining room.

Heber Springs offers several scenic hiking trails for active guests, such as Collins Creek or Bridal Veil Falls. The Carl Garner Visitor Center along the Little Red provides an excellent hiking trail just off the cliffs overlooking the river. For the more adventurous, Heber Springs also offers a hiking trail up Sugar Loaf Mountain for stunning lake and town views.

Experience The History of Eden Isle & Red Apple Inn  

Discover the captivating history of Red Apple Inn Lodging & Golf in Heber Springs, AR, where dreams and determination have shaped a timeless haven. Business leader Herbert L initially envisioned the resort. Thomas and Ruby acquired the 500 acres near Heber Springs in 1961, setting the stage for a premier vacation destination and golf retreat. Despite the challenges posed by the Greers Ferry Dam and subsequent fire, the inn rose like a phoenix, offering cherished memories to guests.

In 1995, Dick and Patti Upton, respected Heber Springs residents, breathed new life into the inn. Their commitment to reviving the Thomases’ dream led to extensive renovations, rekindling the inn’s allure. Herbert Thomas’ legacy, marked by his dedication to Eden Isle’s harmonious development, lives on, despite his passing in 1982. Through the Uptons’ efforts, the Red Apple Inn continues to honor his vision, weaving a narrative of persistence, resilience, and an enduring commitment to crafting an oasis of luxury.
