Jim and Wendy traveled a long distance to marry: all the way from England to Hot Springs. The lovely and kind couple exchanged vows
Jim & Wendy's Arkansas wedding
on a rather balmy December afternoon, allowing great photos in our gardens.
Incorporating British traditions into the setting, the initial toast was for the Queen, followed by a toast to the couple–a first at Lookout Point!
We send our best wishes, as Wendy & Jim return to their home in England. We’re honored that you chose to marry at our Hot Springs bed & breakfast.

We would like to thank the many military personnel who spent their Veterans’ Day with us today at Lookout Point!
We welcomed veterans and those serving in active duty with a free Arkansas getaway in honor of their service. Our special guests today included men and women from all branches of the military who have served in Vietnam, Iraq and Afghanistan.
Hundreds of innkeepers participated in this B&Bs for Vets campaign, sponsored by the Better Way To Stay, to recognize those who have made sacrifices for our freedom.
Thank you veterans!
As an on-going thanks to America’s service men and women, Lookout Point always offers a 10% discount Sunday-Thursday for active military. We thank you for your service to our country!

Hot Air Balloons gather from across the US for the Legends Balloon Rally
Hot Springs Balloon
held September 23-24 at the Hot Springs airport. The Rally is a fun event for all ages. Don’t miss the spectacularly beautiful balloon
glow on Friday & Saturday evenings. The balloons are a big enough draw, however we’re also going to hear great music. The Charlie Daniels Band performs Friday night, and Three Dog Night are in concert on Saturday.
Best of all, it’s FREE! Just bring your own lawn chairs. Or if you forget yours, we’ll loan you a couple of chairs, when you’re staying at our Hot Springs bed & breakfast.

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.
