I may or may not have fallen in love with every glass. My friend, who lives on the dry side (of wine, not personality), tried a couple white dry options and gave an approving nod to a couple sips. Huge shoutout to Eve, who crafted our charcuterie board that we're still wondering about this one item on the board -- looked like green olives, but definitely weren't -- and they were weirdly amazing. We forgot to ask what they were, so now it's a delicious mystery that haunts us in the best way. All in all, lovely vibes, goo wine, and a mysterious snack that may have unlocked a new flavor dimension. 10/10 would sip again

We really enjoyed this place!…read more We were in the area with our RV group and wanted to do some wine tasting. Whispering Meadows among others were on our list of stops. A large group of us overwhelmed this cute downtown tasting room and the staff stepped right up. You could tell they were used to getting rushed with groups as they gracefully handled us. Most of us did wine flights. Their presentation was really cool. For $15, we got 6 generous pours in mini-wine glasses set in a vertical wine-tree. So cool. I've found most wines in this area to be on the sweeter side. A bit too sweet for my taste. Yet, there were 3 wines (Choctaw Avenue, Whisper and Something to Talk About) we tasted here that we really enjoyed and we bought bottle of some of them. They also have a huge selection of wine and lifestyle related gifts and items in their store. The owner and staff were delightful. Check this place out when you're near McAlester, OK.

You have to come to the Forest Heritage Center when they have the Folk Festival Arts & Crafts Show…read more It is really one of the better festivals that I have ever attended. I have been coming to Beaver's Bend State Park and to the Forest Heritage Center since I was a child and I noticed that Spike S.'s review discussed the wonderful history and description of the museum so I won't go there. The Folk Festival is going on this weekend and my sister, husband and I went yesterday which was a Friday. I have always gone on Saturday or Sunday in the past but here is a pro-tip. Go on the first day and get there when they open at 9am. The parking is less crowded. When you get to the Forest Heritage Center follow the signs with arrows to the parking area. You will then be directed to a space to park and then you can hop on one of the adorable trams pulled by a tractor or you can hitch a ride in one of the state park vans if you prefer a little more climate control. They will drop you off at the festival and they are constantly picking up folks leaving the festival so you never have to wait. We shopped and observed local artisans preparing their wares. There were people dressed in period costumes throughout. Women were spinning yarn, a man was making wood carvings, and a group was performing traditional folk music on dulcimers and mandolins. There were also Choctaw tribe members making beaded jewelry and demonstrating the game of stickball. The Forest Heritage Center is known for it's support of woodturning artists; so there were many of the woodturners there with the most gorgeous bowls and other turned wood items on display. I believe next year I will buy one of the bowls. Soooooo beautiful. The nearby Oklahoma Historical Society from Fort Towson was there and had numerous prints of old Oklahoma Maps and other historical Oklahoma themed posters for $5 each! Those posters would have made excellent framed art for some of the local cabins or for someone's home. Mountain Fork Brewery had a booth and I bought a nice bottle of the local Stout called Pappy's Buck Snort (love the name and the bottle is gorgeous). I also picked up some delicious Jalapeno Cheddar sourdough bread and a jumbo chocolate sourdough cookie. I also picked up some honey soaked pecans and honey jar containing a honeycomb from Roark Acres and salsa verde from Sixth Day Snacks....as you can see it is all about the food and beverages for me. I hope that you will consider visiting this awesome museum and especially coming to the folk festival in early November. I highly recommend!

When we were first seated, the table wasn't clean. When my sister politely mentioned it, the waitress seemed more defensive than apologetic and moved us to an even more uncomfortable table. Service overall was very slow, especially considering they were not busy. It took a long time just to get drinks, my tea was never offered a refill, and my mom was brought the completely wrong meal -- she ordered a chicken sandwich and received a hamburger instead. The food itself was honestly pretty disappointing for the cost. Ralph and I both ordered the chicken fried chicken, which was around $27 each, and it came out cold. The green beans were cold too and honestly not good at all. Overall, the food felt very average and definitely not worth the price point. The one highlight was the famous quail poppers -- those were actually really good and probably the best thing we had all night. Sadly, after all four of us talked about it afterward, we agreed the experience was maybe a 3 out of 5 at best, and that's being generous. We really wanted to love it, but it just fell short in both service and food quality.
