The 42-room Americas Best Value Inn is located in the heart of Great Bend on Tenth Street, which is US Highway 56, just west of US Highway 281 between Harrison Street and Lincoln Street. The name of Great Bend comes from its location on the big bend in the Arkansas River. Numerous Native American tribes were drawn to the area by the river, large herds of bison, and huge marshland rich in wildlife. The first great American trade route, the Santa Fe Trail ran right through the towns present-day Courthouse Square, making Great Bend a historic crossroads for settlers on the prairie.
