Thousands of bikers descend upon Hot Springs for the annual open rally, held September 8-10. The area is perfect for great rides though the low-lying mountains and scenic vistas!

Bikes in Hot Springs
This year’s rally concerts present Sawyer Brown and Steppenwolf!
Historic downtown Hot Springs rumbles with excitement and energy. After your ride, come “home” to our
Hot Springs bed & breakfast for some genuine peace & quiet. Soak away your stiff muscles in your whirlpool tub, and enjoy a tranquil view of Lake Hamilton from your room or the gardens. It’s the best of both worlds!
Bikers staying at the inn are welcome to park your motorcycles under our covered carport, in our secluded and safe parking lot.

Labor Day Weekend, traditionally seen as the close to the summer season, finds lots of fun events in Hot Springs. Of course, water sports tops the list of a great way to relax and say farewell to summer. If you’re planning to rent a boat, do so right away!
Friday evening check out Gallery Walk in the historic downtown. You’ll see gorgeous art in all prices, meet the artists, and sip a glass of wine. Fun!
Saturday morning our own “Capt. Ray” provides a 90-minute boat tour of Lake Hamilton for guests of our Hot Springs bed & breakfast. Hear the stories of the mansions, and history of the lake.

Fireworks over Lake Hamilton
Fireworks over Lake Hamilton explode on Sunday evening. I love to hear the resounding echoes of the fireworks, bouncing around the lake, off the docks, and the mountains! The best fireworks viewing is from either J&S Italian Villa (reserve early!) or the Bell Riverboat fireworks cruise.

Of course everyone knows of Hot Springs, Arkansas as the “The Spa City”. Hot Springs is ripe with day spas and massage parlors. Bathhouse row, located in the historic district downtown, is one of the town’s biggest draws with the historical significance in and of itself. But what about the lakes? Here in Hot Springs, we know how to spend the summer!
First, a little history lesson…
Hot Springs is home to one of Arkansas’s aptly named “Diamond Lakes”.
And oh how they sparkle! Look!
In addition to being truly beautiful, the diamond lakes are also useful! Who knew?! Lake Hamilton, for example, was created by Arkansas Power & Light in 1932 with the vision of harnessing the natural power of running water to generate hydro-electricity. This would ensure the town could continue to support growth. With the installment of Carpenter dam a success, Lake Hamilton was born!
Lake Hamilton is over 7,000 acres of fun and not to mention some of the best fishing in the state. Residents and tourist alike get out on the water to cool off during the summer. At any given time, one would see jet skis, inner tubes, pontoon boats and skiers taking advantage of the spacious lake. Off of the main channel, you can find residents floating along in their canoes, paddle boats, and even simple inflatable rafts. Much of the lake is lined with condos, houses, and restaurants.
Visit Hot Springs! Relax! Experience the beauty of Lake Hamilton for yourself!
