If you’ve been looking for a reason to escape to the river for a winter weekend, this is it. Calico Rock River View Inn is hosting its first-ever Weekend Workshop, February 13–15, and it’s shaping up to be the perfect blend of relaxation, good food, local art, and Arkansas-grown wine.
Tucked alongside the White River in beautiful Calico Rock, the Inn offers one of those rare settings where the pace slows down and the scenery does the heavy lifting. Think peaceful river views by day and cozy evenings by the fire at night—exactly the kind of place you want to settle into for a special weekend experience.
Meet the Weekend Workshop Guest: Bluebird Ranch Winery
This inaugural workshop features Bluebird Ranch Winery, a standout in Arkansas’ growing wine scene. They’re doing something pretty special in the state:
• They use 100% Arkansas-grown grapes
• They’re the only winery in Arkansas growing Vinifera (Old World) varieties like Cabernet Sauvignon, Sauvignon Blanc, and Albariño
Their philosophy is simple but bold: great wine starts in the vineyard, without extra additives, and their goal is to craft local wines that can stand toe-to-toe with bottles from around the world. Guests will have the chance to enjoy their wines while learning more about what makes Arkansas-grown wine so unique.
What to Expect During the Weekend
The Weekend Workshop is designed to be relaxed, social, and memorable:
• Friday Evening: Art Walk & reception
• Saturday Evening: Dinner, wine pairings, and conversation in the historic dining room
• Each Morning: Freshly prepared brunch for overnight guests
It’s a curated weekend where you can meet new people, enjoy great food and wine, and take in the charm of Calico Rock without feeling rushed.
