The Skycrest Restaurant
Offering a diverse menu, and many specialty items unique to the Skycrest Restaurant, your dining choices may become a little difficult. You will want to visit again and again, just to try something new.
With a majestic view of the Petit Jean River Valley, Blue Mountain Lake, and the Ouachita Mountains in the distant, the Skycrest Restaurant offers fine dining in a unique setting. Tall trees and an impressive two-story chimney and fireplace offer a comfortable style of a previous era. Native wooden furniture completes the rustic, relaxing atmosphere.
