Mountain View Travel Guide
Edit This The best resource for sights, hotels, restaurants, bars, what to do and see"Ozark Mountain" Folk Concert at Ozark Folk Center
Joseph Hollick
Mountain View is a small town in the Ozark Mountains with a population of about 3,000. It is the county seat for Stone County.
Its main attraction is the Ozark Folk Center which is operated by the Arkansas Department of Parks and Tourism. The Ozark Folk Center was officially opened by the Clintons when Bill Clinton was governor of Arkansas.
Some people call Mountain View the "Folk Music Capital of the World" due to the activities in this center. When we were there we stayed in the center in a "pod-like" motel room which was great. The restaurant on site was very good and most nights they have live entertainment in their concert hall. We saw our first hillbilly folk concert there and it was very entertaining.
The next day we toured the center with all of its Ozark craft centers, museums and Ozark mountain life, a worthwhile visit.
