What a joy to welcome Jamie & Reese for their wedding on a gorgeous sunny May afternoon.
Congratulations!
Standing by the waterfalls and roses, the fun and happy couple exchanged vows and rings.
Following the champagne toast, they actually climbed into the waterfalls for a photo op.
If you know of someone seeking to be married in a beautiful setting, please tell them about our Arkansas bed & breakfast wedding packages.

Heidi and Ryan married in the inn’s gardens, with azaleas blooming and Lake Hamilton providing a gorgeous backdrop. In his dress blues, and her lovely gown, the couple exchanged vows and of course celebrated with a kiss.
Celebrating marriage with a kiss at Lookout Point, Hot Springs
The photographer (Kelley Wilde) captured Ryan’s adoring gaze at his beautiful bride! With a variety of sites in the gardens for weddings, they chose to get married under the crepe myrtle trees right along the Lake Hamilton seawall. It’s a beautiful setting!

One of the truly unique features of Lookout Point’s lakeside gardens is the 11-circuit labyrinth. If you’re unfamiliar with a labyrinth, it is a historic form of walking prayer and meditation. Unlike a maze, the labyrinth has no dead ends. Ours is modeled after the Chartres, France labyrinth from the 13th century!
The Inn's labyrinth
Recent guest David R., after walking the labyrinth, was inspired to write this poem. We are truly honored!
A Place That Breathes Deeply
A place that breathes deeply that falls off the hill
Dionysus lays waiting to fend off your ills.
You yield to the magic of natures great feast
And drink in the nectar that quietens the beast.
Alone in the garden the labyrinth stands round
To take you to places without any sounds.
A spot in the center, the middle is thine
The future is here, Yes, eternity shines.

Fog shrouded Lake Hamilton throughout breakfast, then cleared to a brilliant blue sky day. Just in time for “Captain” Ray’s boat tour of the lake.

Come experience one of the largest multicultural and intergenerational attractions in Hot Springs, the Hot Springs Documentary Film Festival. Stay with us at Lookout Point for this event.
The upcoming festival, held October 16th-25 at the historic Malco Theatre in downtown Hot Springs., remains the only film institute in the United States dedicated solely to the documentary film genre. The festival was incorporated as a non-profit organization in 1992.
The Festival shapes the identity of Arkansas nationally and internationally. The Festival committee views nearly 1,000 films submitted from Afghanistan to Zimbabwe, and selects 100 to be viewed each year.
For more information on this festival and a calendar of the films and the times visit the Festival’s website http://www.hsdfi.org.
The inn is located about 7 miles from the downtown area, which makes us a perfect locations to stay and enjoy this wonderful event.

It’s back to school season, and perhaps you’d like to sneak away for a couple of days before life gets too hectic. We’re offering an August Special: stay two nights anytime through the end of August. You’ll receive one-half dozen chocolate covered strawberries in your room awaiting your arrival, plus a chilled bottle of French Sparkling Wine (Risque by Toad Hollow) or a chilled bottle of sparkling juice.
As an added bonus, the gardens are still lush and green. From our Texas friends and guests, especially around the Austin area, we hear how dry and brown the earth is from the continuing drought. That certainly isn’t the situation here on Lake Hamilton! We’d love to see you, and hope you can get away for an end of summer trip.
Be sure to ask for the August Special.

Lookout Point has made the news in Taiwan. An article about the inn was published in the August edition of the Organic Lifestyle Magazine in Taiwan. Lookout Point received an email from the magazine letting us know about this article. It is really great that the environmental efforts of Lookout Point are being recognized around the world. We really appreciate this article and will continue our environmental efforts!!

One of mother nature’s unexpected “gifts” is a water fountain “pond” filled with brim. I’m not a fisherperson, but it’s those lake fish with a blue spot on their sides. There’s probably 100 brim in the pond, plus the 30 goldfish. We are continually inviting guests to fish the brim, and release them the lake—-or take them home in their own cooler. I’m not cooking the fish!
Today our wonderful guest Raymond enjoyed some fishing in our pond, and caught 3 brim in a short amount of time. Yeah! The one goldfish snagged was happily released to swim with his friends.
If you want some easy fishing, come on to Lookout Point. Pull up a chair, sit in the shade, and fish away. Sip on a glass of wine or beer, and RELAX.
I haven’t figured out how to have a fishing tournament in our pond. Any ideas?
