Dreaming of waking up to the beauty of the Ozarks?
How about a quiet day of antiquing - searching for that perfect treasure. But wait, don't book that hotel yet - did you know that there are a host of Arkansas timeshares available for you to rent? You'll find that most timeshare rentals available for about the same price as a hotel room, what's more - you'll enjoy more room, more luxury, and more services at a resort located steps away from everything the gorgeous Ozarks have to offer.

Sharp County was created in 1868 from the western part of Lawrence County. It was named in honor of Ephriam Sharp, a pioneer legislator from the region. Evening Shade was named the first county seat, but when the railroad crossed the northern district, Hardy was also made a county seat. Sharp was one of only a few counties in the state to have dual seats of justice. In 1967, a new courthouse was dedicated at Ash Flat and the county once again had only one county seat.
The Hardy-Cherokee Village area remains the county’s most popular travel destination. Old Hardy Town retains its 1920s vintage appearance with craft and antique shops, automobile museum, city parks and bed & breakfast inns. Cherokee Village offers championship golf courses and relaxed living. Other attractions include canoeing on the Spring River, hiking or birdwatching in a nearby wildlife management preserve, and musical shows in the area.
