4.0 out of 5 stars Best Arkansas Guide I Found!, June 9, 2000

As with any guide, some information may have changed since the last edition. However, I thoroughly enjoyed the path this guide led me on. I discoved an Arkansas I never imagined! Restaurants were on the money! Accomodation recommendations exceeded my expectations! I felt the content was honest, objective, adequately descriptive and thorough. My only real complaint was the Cave City Motor Lodge recommendation. The book should be updated in regards to it being barely open for business and the "restoration" is rather slow in coming. We looked at the few guides available for Arkansas and we still think this one is best.

I gave this book 2 out of five stars because it is informational. But the problem I found when looking at restaurants and places to stay that were in my area of the state I found many things were not right, such as spellings of names of restaurants. Also, she listed one place as only a restaurant and it is also a place to go for a weekend get away that is very neat. I only wonder about the rest of the information. It is fun to look at but I wouldn't use it as a guide when I travel to any of the places, lord knows I would probably be trying to get some place that did not exist as she had spelled it and look like a completely "dumb" tourist.
