Hot Springs

We visited Hot Springs last year and loved it! There is lots of fun shopping and dining in town along with some great hiking trails if that's what you're into.

Activities

Garvan Gardens

Garvan Gardens St, Hot Springs, AR 71913, USA
(800) 366-4664

This is the garden that the ceremony and reception will be held. It is a beautiful and quite park with hiking trails surrounded by nature, and of course, a beautiful garden. There are paved trails with bathrooms along the way and look out points. This photo is one we took on our visit. On the day of the Wedding, there will be no fee for admission.

Bathhouses

We actually did not do the bathhouses while we were there! It is the main attraction of the town, and we plan on doing it this time around. There are a few of the bathhouses that are adults only, so make sure to check before you go!

Walk the Town

There are many cute shops in town that we loved looking through. The town is not very big, but it would take the better part of a day to explore it all. The town is full of historic buildings and large trees.

Hot Springs Mountain Tower

We also went to the historic Mountain Tower. It is a short drive from town; however, there is an admission fee of $13. It offers a full view of the town and a show room of the history of Hot Springs. So, if you're a history lover like Sebastian, this will be you jam.

Food and Dining

The Pancake Shop

We ate here during our stay. It is a very old but very cute breakfast place! It is pretty popular too, so there was a little bit of a wait when we went, but the fantastic pancakes were worth it.

Grateful Head Pizza Oven and Beer Garden

Another great place to eat! There was outdoor and indoor seating, and the pizza was great.

Superior Bathhouse Brewery

This restaurant was so cool! It was once a bathhouse but converted into a restaurant. It is right in the middle of town, so it is a convenient place to eat if you're exploring town!

SQZBX Brewery & Pizza

This restaurant was fun as well. Took us a very long time to figure out the SQZBX was supposed to mean "Squeeze Box." The restaurant is music inspired with some more great pizza.

Trails

Northwood Trails
