Last weekend of June (2027 dates TBA) · Arkansas State University Mountain Home · About 20 minutes from Falling Stars
Mountain Home’s biggest summer weekend — the Red, White & Blue Festival at ASUMH combines a community festival with fireworks, a rodeo, live music, and a 5K road race. It’s the region’s big pre-Fourth-of-July draw. Falling Stars is 20 minutes away on Bull Shoals Lake — six glamping domes with private hot tubs, quiet nights on the water, and enough space for the whole family.
Basecamp for a family festival weekend
- 20 minutes to Mountain Home. Direct drive to the festival grounds — go for the day, come back to real quiet, do it again tomorrow.
- Space for the family. Six glamping domes sleeping 4–8 each. Bring the kids, the cousins, the whole reunion.
- Cool off on the lake between events. When the festival’s not running, Bull Shoals is right there — swimming, kayaking, or just a sunset boat sit.
- Real beds, private hot tubs. Not a strip-mall motel next to a truck stop. Real recovery between long summer days.
