This place is truly amazing. So much love and attention has been put into the place. We look forward to staying again! I would to the the restaurant again. Thank you!
Check-in was a pain at night. The instructions were not sent to us and there were multiple phone numbers to call. We finally got someone. The room itself was WONDERFUL. We really loved the charm. The shared bathrooms are pretty, but lots of guest hair in the ladies’ shower area.
This is an historic building that has been restored and upgraded. It is quaint, charming and off the beaten path in the beautiful Boston Mountains in the Ozarks. Chester in on an old rail line that ran North/South along the Northwestern border of Arkansas from Van Buren to Fayetteville (Woo Pig Sooie). The rail line was the major transportation line until US highway 71 was built. The highway bypassed Chester so its economy collapsed and left this old boarding house/inn to languish until the folks who own it now have it restored. Now the new Interstate 49 runs by and it has had an impact on all the little towns along the old highway 71, but Chester can now be easily accessed by an off ramp. If you want an experience on your way to a Razorback football or basketball game, try it out. If you like a cookie cutter motel, this place is not it!
This was by far the best place I’ve stayed in a long while. We stayed a night and wished we didn’t have to go back home and back to work. Chester is a tiny town of 150 people but what a mighty little town. We can’t wait to get back!!!
Great stay!! We would definitely stay here again. The bed was very comfortable. We didn’t see or experience any ghosts but it definitely has some spookiness to it. If you are looking for a different kind of experience this is the place
