Businesses About You: Sunset Lodge at Rusty Tractor Vineyards
In summer 2011, Sheree and Doug Meyer, the owners of Rusty Tractor Vineyards and Sunset Lodge, planted 200 muscadines on a one-acre field. Upon seeing the ancient beauty of the vineyard in their own backyard and the bounty of fruit the muscadines produced, the pair were influenced to expand their grape plantings. After years of planning and cultivation, an additional 5,000 vines of multiple grape varietals were added to the property in the fields across from McHenry Creek. The romance of the vine is what inspired them to bring us Rusty Tractor Vineyards.
Doug and Sheree built Sunset Lodge in hopes of bringing the beauty of the vines to everyone. Our expansive grounds can cater to anything from a celebration of hundreds to an intimate gathering of two.
The Tasting Room offers a huge selection of wines and light fare. The Sunroom addition holds breathtaking views of the vineyard and is perfect for any event you can dream up. The property has a long history of agriculture, as seen in The Barrel Room. This 100-year-old dairy barn was renovated into an ideal setting for intimate gatherings of up to 50 people. The covered patio, that can accommodate up to 300 guests, will awe you with its spectacular view of the immaculately manicured vineyard rows, while protecting you from the sun and rain.
“We are more than happy to help you pick exceptionally qualified vendors from a well-curated list,” the Meyers say. “With a vast array of wines, ample amounts of space and a dazzling staff ready to cater to your every need, Sunset Lodge is the ideal event venue.”
Whether you are looking to taste wine, host a 50th-anniversary party, get married, get engaged, hold a business meeting, or anything in between, Sunset Lodge at Rusty Tractor Vineyards is perfectly suited for all of Central Arkansas’ needs.
