Maness School House / StoneHouse Restaurant

The Maness School House, completed in February 1937, is the only building in the entire area that was not moved or destroyed when the Department of Defense acquired 72,000 acres to build Camp Chaffee. German POW's built the back porch in 1943. The school was added to the National Register of Historic Places on May 29, 2003. Today, this historical building is home to StoneHouse Restaurant, known for fine dining indoors and outside on its historic back porch. Outdoor events and parties are often held here. A ribbon cutting was held on April 14, 2016 that was attended by several members of the last class held at the school in 1940.
