Fish Tales Winery & Bistro
Situated just across from the main entrance to Beavers Bend State Park, Fish Tales Winery is a tasting room and bistro built around Muscadine grapes grown in the Ouachita foothills.
The wine selection spans dry, semi-sweet, and sweet options in red, white, and other styles, available for tasting and purchase in the gift shop. The attached bistro serves a menu designed to pair with the wines, with both indoor and outdoor seating. The winery is open daily, while the bistro follows a more limited schedule and typically closes on Sundays and Mondays.
Beyond wine and dining, Fish Tales offers guided fly fishing services on the Lower Mountain Fork River, with experienced guides who practice catch-and-release. That combination makes this stop worth more than a quick tasting.
Knotted Rope Winery
A small-batch winery on Lukfata Trail Road in Hochatown, Knotted Rope skips barrel aging to preserve the natural character of the grape, setting its wines apart from most of what’s available in the area.
Girls Gone Wine
With two locations in the Broken Bow area and nearly two decades of operation, Girls Gone Wine has become a fixture of any visit to Hochatown.
Scotty Dogg’s Hideout
The area’s most dedicated whiskey and cigar destination, Scotty Dogg’s Hideout operates across the street from the Hochatown Saloon as its quieter, smokier counterpart.
The Yard Under The Pines
The Yard Under the Pines is a 10,000-square-foot outdoor entertainment plaza that brings several of Hochatown’s small businesses together under a canopy of mature pines.
