Tour Operator Introduces Arkansas’ First Luxury Eco-Lodge

Mountain Home, AR, July 05, 2009 --(PR.com)-- The first of its kind in the Ozarks, the lodge will combine high-end features, such as double rainfall showers, egg baths, and woven circular daybeds with eco-features like dual flush toilets, recycled tiles, reclaimed wood furniture, bamboo bedding, and organic towels.

Named ‘Anedodi’ (meaning ‘adventure’ in Cherokee), the lodge offers numerous adventure activities: From water skiing, wake boarding, and knee boarding on Lake Norfork, to fishing some of the best trout rivers in the country. Nearby, the Buffalo River National Park offers opportunities for hiking along riverbeds to find waterfalls and floating the river by canoe or kayak. Rock climbing is another big attraction, with over 1,000 established routes through the Ozark sandstone.

Views in the Ozark Mountains have hardly changed in thousands of years. Mountain rivers and lakes are crystal clear and clean – as testament, there are two PADI dive shops on Lake Norfork. Each season offers different views and attractions – waterfall walks in spring; water sports in summer; hiking to see magnificent vistas in fall; and trout, bass, and walleye fishing in winter. For more information, see: www.anedodi.com

Launched in January 2008, WAC Travel steer clear of big name chain hotels and resorts in favor of destinations which combine a sense of place, with integration into local culture and explorations of the natural environment. They choose hotels, villas, yachts, representatives and transportation that act responsibly to minimize their impact on the environment. They avoid brochures, flyers and mail-outs and carbon neutralize every flight booked. Destinations include the U.S.A, Latin America, Europe, Africa, and Australia, prices range from $1,000 per person to $40,000 per person.
