Sightseeing
This is where presidents stay when they come here but you can have a drink and apps on the Sunset Terrace and enjoy the view of the city. Or sit by the MASSIVE fire and listen to the piano bar/live music. Or really treat yourself to a day at their magical spa, complete with waterfalls and saline pool. Historic turn of the century, arts and crafts resort.

Hot Springs is an incredible place. The healing mineral water comes from a mile down in the earth! The tubs are in leantos that are open air to views of the woods/river but are private to the other tubs. There are nearby hiking trails and a sweet little town with shops and restaurants and a lot of history!
