What we didn’t like was discovering there is a charge for plate sharing at the restaurant!!! I did not even know that was a thing! And if you plan on getting anything to go, be prepared to be charged for every plate a service charge. Other than that, I absolutely love this place! And we will be back!"

Camped out for the weekend on Hotel Island on Lake Ouachita (there is no hotel on the island :) It's just the largest of hundreds of islands on this lake). This was the view of our beach and first sunset on the lake. The water here was amazing and very clear as well, which made for great SCUBA diving conditions and the little bays around the islands provided calm water for wakeboarding and other watersports. #LifeAtExpedia #Nature #Trovember
