How would you describe your Tourist Area Small town and tourist area
area?
Please provide a brief description of your Arnolds Park is a tourist area with many entertainment venues for
community: visitors to enjoy. Experience the oldest amusement park west of the
Mississippi, a premier golf course, a full-service marina and rentals of
boats, personal watercraft, wakeboards, scooters and bicycles. A
diverse variety of restaurants, lounges and nightlife abound, including
the Roof Garden. Numerous shops are clustered in several venues
and are scattered up and down US Hwy. 71. Visitors have a wide
range of accommodation types to choose from, including resorts, a
time-share and public and private campgrounds.

Arnolds Park changes with the seasons. In the winter, there is a

casual, informal atmosphere and in the summer the town is full of
activity. The eclectic people who live in the area believe it's the best of
both worlds. The five lakes that surround Arnolds Park limit the size of
the town's center making it easy to walk to local shops, restaurants
and attractions.
