War Eagle Mill Fair
Fall festival · Rogers · Arkansas
A working 1973 reconstruction of an 1832 gristmill on War Eagle Creek hosts the region's biggest craft fair every third week of October, when hundreds of artisans set up alongside the mill's stone-ground flour and its one-lane 1907 bridge over turning Ozark hillsides.
