🌊 Paddle. Spot. Repeat. 🦅
Ramsey Slough in Batesville, tucked beside the mighty White River, is a calm backwater with deep river roots and serious outdoor vibes.
Today it’s prime for kayaking, casting a line, and catching wildlife moments you can’t plan for.
🦅 Bald eagles cruising overhead
🦫 Beavers working the shoreline
🦦 Otters popping up when you least expect it
Quiet paddles. Wild sightings.
Save this spot for your next outdoor reset.

That first pop of yellow is the sweetest reminder that spring is on the way. Warmer days, longer evenings, and outdoor adventures ahead! It is Jonquil season! Love seeing this beautiful sign spring will soon be here!Our mother would say, “The jonquils are blooming. Time for you to come home!”
The first of the jonquils are beginning to make their debut here at Calico River View Inn. It’s time for you to come for a visit?
