Hot Springs, Arkansas

While visiting Greg's grandfather in Dumas, Arkansas, we were able to take a day trip to Hot Springs, a little gem of a city about two hours from Little Rock. Located on the outskirts of the Ouachita (pronounced "Wah-cha-taw") National Forest, the hotspot turned into an international destination at the turn of the century for the healing and therapeutic advantages to bathing in the hot spring water. We toured around the Fordyce Bathhouse, which happens to be the visitor center for Bathhouse Row, among Hot Springs National Park. 

Among all the sights in Hot Springs, here are a few:


The Good Ol' Days

Arlington Hotel and Spa
