    Our great library has it all, but if you can't find it they can usually get it for you. Friendly, helpful staff is happy to help. Great selection of books, movies and books-on-tape

    SECLUDED AND THE WATER WAS Nice. But my husband found the poison ivy pretty quickly. All in all a good place to park and one of the better rec areas around. We're vacationing from Missouri for rock hounding.

    The exhibits are okay, not outstanding, and it seems like things need updated a bit. It was a nice enough stop, and we purchased the combination ticket with the Ducks, so we were dropped off there.

    Great place to visit on a rainy day in Hot Springs. Lots of great treasures and good prices. We will definitely return on our next visit.

    If you’re in the area then this was a neat place to visit and walk around. I don’t think I’d make a special trip to this area just to see it, but if you happen to walk up on it like we did then it’s worth your time.

    We wanted an authentic old fashioned bath experience, and got it at Quapaw Baths. We opted for a 30 minute couples bath with micro oxygen bubbles. It was worth the moderate cost to be able to soak in a real tub, without swimsuits. Had we been with family we would have done the public pool option, which looked nice as well.

    Tip: tour the museum at the NPS welcome center first. It will give you an idea of what the baths were like in previous times.

    Don’t expect to be pampered. This is a more rustic experience. But it felt authentic.

    What a gem of a park! The mountain bike skills areas seemed brand new and the kids had a blast trying out all the areas. Green trails were very beginner safe and thoroughly enjoyed by both the children and the avid cycling adults in our party. Trails are well marked and easy to follow. Playground is new and very nice.

    View over Hot Springs was nice. Better was the drive up the mountain through the trees and then walking on the trails. Some of the trails are a bit steep. Be careful that you don't have a big climb back to your start point.

    We spent hours in this antique shop! My husband and I kept finding items that brought back memories when we were kids and young adults. There are a lot of rooms to wander through! We felt there were a lot of interesting pieces to look at. Sometimes places are full of junk and not necessarily finds. We had so much fun, we even went back a second day!

    This lake is fun and has much to offer. The Boy Scouts use this site for some activities, it is in a nice location near town.

    My family and I have been MANY times, and each time was amazing! When there, I pay close attention in an attempt to figure out the tricks. To date, I've been unsuccessful! When we travel to Hot Springs, we never miss a show! Blade Maxwell is also hilarious! He adds wonderful comedic talent to the performance.

    We have purchased several pieces from this gallery over the years. They do a great job of providing original works of art across a wide range of price points. Whether you're looking for a large statement piece or just a lovely piece for a small powder room, you'll find it here. The artists often attend the first Friday of the month Gallery Walk events.

    As you are walking downtown this cute little park gives you a respite from the sidewalk traffic. It has a soothing waterfall and twinkling lights in the trees.

    Alas, the first floor is now completely closed. Very interesting building in the history of Arkansas and Hot Springs (as highlighted in the many reviews below). If you want to snap a photo of the entire building, it can be taken on the outdoor veranda of the Arlington Hotel directly across the street.

    This was the highlight of our visit. I had been to a glassblowing demonstration before and thought I knew what to expect, but The Riley brothers exceed all expectations. From the first warm greeting to the last farewell, it was a total emersion in art in general and, very specifically in glass. The demonstration itself was magical and so, so informative. And the glass, ah the glass. Even if you don't have time for a demonstration, go for the glass. It is pure one-of-a-kind art at extremely reasonable prices. Knowing that I was flying home I asked to have it shipped and it arrived speedily, impeccably packed. Honestly if you do one thing other than Bathhouse Row in Hot Springs, this should be it.
