Although we were staying over an hour away at Horseshoe Bend, experts and guides told us that the easiest float-trout fishing was in the Little Red River. I took the recommendations and so instead of the nearby White River we went here. Our yield was disappointing. The fishing site is just below the dam outside of Heber S. and just beyond the fish hatchery ( which is worth a separate visit if you are in the area). The river is serene and picturesque and some avid fishermen have summer abodes (of varying cost) on the banks. In spite of the small catch, we dined in the evening on sauteed fillets and I even had a cold one left-over for lunch the next day. There are many put-ins on the river like the one we used and they can provide a guide, licenses, motor boats and sandwich materals and beverages for a day of fun. (Our guide did all of that for us). Some of the sites have overnight cabins as well. They are simple and clean. We could not keep the brown small-mouth bass because it was less than the minimumlimit of 1 1/2 lbs.

Red Apple Inn on Eden Isle: Red Apple is Awesome!

Red Apple Inn on Eden Isle: Red Apple is Awesome!, Heber Springs

 Wilverine Says:  Wonderful amenities, beautiful surroundings and a first class restaurant make this a must see for anyone thinking of going to Arkansas. The Isle Harbor pool is really nice and shaded in the summer. Also the marina has boats for rent. 

Red Apple Inn: Luxury in Arkansas?

The Dining Room at the Inn

A most beautifully sited and tastefully arranged dining room with a cuisine to match, American with European overtonesand materials equal to their treatment. The well to do reseidents of Eden Isle eat there regularly which attests to its cuisine. We have eaten there many times over the years and found it a good decision

Favorite Dish: There are no specialties that we have cultivated. My most receent meal was lunch and the fish preparation met with my approval.The price below is my estimate for a full dinner
