You can’t go back in time, but you can experience the next best thing with a stay in the Prairie Palace Covered Wagon! Modeled after the covered wagons of the Old West yet outfitted with modern-day conveniences, it’s the perfect place to experience pioneer American culture, along with a few bells and whistles.
One of several unique rentals at Fox Pass Cabins in Hot Springs, the Prairie Palace Covered Wagon is nestled in the Ouachita National Forest.
Offering one of the most unique covered wagon rentals in the U.S., the wagon is set in a museum quality replica Pioneer Camp – complete with fire-pit, charcoal grill, and life-size mule team!
Its authentic appearance truly provides a passageway back through time, allowing you to experience the culture of the American frontier wagon trains that made the U.S. what it is today.
The wagon itself doesn’t have a bathroom. However, there’s a bathhouse 100 feet from the wagon, as well as a port-a-potty near the wagon for added convenience.
Not far from the wagon, there’s an old dry creek, where arrowheads have been found. Today, guests of the Prairie Palace Covered Wagon get to dig for arrowheads – and keep whatever they find.
Offering a taste of pioneer life in an idyllic, secluded setting, the Prairie Palace Covered Wagon will take you back in time…in the very best way possible!
