Another shot of lake Louemma. Such a beautiful sight! I couldn't let it pass. This place is a little local "pond" used mainly for finishing.

Free trolley ride in Downtown Van Buren. Christmas lights light the Main Street. High school students play Christmas carols for people waiting for the next ride on the train. 
For a moment, it was like a scene from Gilmore Girls.
This 1.5 mile – moderate trail is called Crack in the Rock for obvious reasons.
You’ll be able to enjoy the creek and the waterfall on the way up.
Train bridge behind the chicken plant. It's especially beautiful during sunset.

Linda at the front desk was very kind and helpful. She even called my room after I checked in to see if everything was good. The breakfast was fresh and hot. The room was carpeted which is nice for my dog as she doesn't like to walk on slippery floors. I would stay there again.

We chilled in the hottub all night, beautiful view and very clean. It smelt pretty strong like air freshener or cleaner, it wasn’t a bad smell, just strong and I’m sensitive to scents. There were snacks and drinks and it was easy to feel right at home

I have not had enough time in Van Buren to give an opinion on the town itself. Just stay far, far away from the Quality Inn in Van Buren.
