Join thousands of motorcycle enthusiasts for the Hot Springs Rally, Sept. 9-11.
Included in the weekend activities are the parade through downtown Hot Springs, three concerts, bike show, and loads of fun. The noise and events happen in downtown Hot Springs.
Yet tucked away on the lake, you’ll find a haven of peace & quiet on Lake Hamilton. A place to soak tired muscles after riding bikes all day, in your bubbling whirlpool tub. Plus, your bikes may be safely parked under our covered carport. Give us a call at 866-525-6155 to reserve your room for the rally!

A July wedding filled with laughter and joy perfectly suited Kit & Liz. They were actually married on the July holiday weekend, when the lake was bounding with activity. The couple wanted a non-traditional setting for their wedding: mission accomplished!
For the first time in 7 years, a band was playing rock & roll music across the lake. Kit and Liz loved the spontaneous music, and even the selection of songs.
I say it often: we are lucky to receive the BEST guests at our bed & breakfast inn. A variety of intimate wedding and elopement packages is offered.

Our Hot Springs bed & breakfast hosts many significant birthday celebrations, and we love the joy and laughter surrounding the events. This spring, two different groups of life-long friends celebrated in big ways.

The East Side Girls of Little Rock
The East Side girls, all formerly of Little Rock, gathered from across the country to renew friendships and celebrate. Friends since junior high, many of these women were the first graduation class from the Little Rock Central High School following integration.
You’re invited to celebrate a birthday at Lookout Point, whether in a romantic fashion for just the two of you, or with your dearest friends.

Last week Lookout Point Lakeside Inn experienced the joy of welcoming the talented guest conductor Pierre Simard, of Montreal Canada. Joined by his enthusiastic wife, Nadya (a professional sopranist), the couple made fast friends with every person they met at the inn. 
Conducting the Festival Symphony Orchestra, Simard’s spirited gifts coaxed the very best of these talented musicians from around the world. The opening overture, Wagner’s Tannhauser, left the crowd in holy awe, resulting in a standing ovation. Well done, maestro!
He’s conducting a Valentine’s concert, with Nadya singing, on February 19 on Vancouver Island, British Columbia. Who wants to go? We do!

One-of-a-kind in concept and execution, the Hot Springs Music Festival brings together over 250 international musicians each June to our wonderful city of Hot Springs. Lookout Point Lakeside Inn delights in sponsoring the Music Festival, and whenever possible we try to catch a concert or rehearsal. Rehearsals are FREE!
The Festival, now in its fifteenth season, pairs world-class mentor musicians from major orchestras, chamber ensembles and conservatory faculties with especially talented pre-professional apprentices–all of whom receive full scholarship plus housing; the two groups play “side by side” in orchestral, chamber, solo recital, vocal, choral and chamber opera repertoire. For two weeks, these musicians form a unique community, presenting 20 concerts and over 250 open rehearsals for music lovers from across the globe.
We invite you to enjoy the amazing Hot Springs Music Festival! The extraordinary talent inhabiting Hot Springs during these two weeks takes my breath away. This is a time to feed the soul!

Beautiful couple
Last week, the rains stopped in time for a garden wedding along the shores of Lake Hamilton in Hot Springs. Surrounded by immediate family and friends, Terry & Cassie exchanged vows and rings.
This sweet, fun couple were perfectly relaxed and calm for the wedding. The high heels were kicked aside right after the ceremony, opting for barefoot comfort. Congratulations to Cassie & Terry!
Lookout Point photographer, Kelley, captured the love shared by this couple and their family.

At Lookout Point, we LOVE weddings, especially small intimate weddings. And especially when the couple is as kind & fun as Samantha & Mark. They exchanged vows today by the lake, with immediate family present. Congratulations!

Marrying at Lookout Point is becoming a trend for the Miller family. Three years ago sister Amy married Cody at Lookout Point, and today they returned to attend this wedding with their precious 2 year old son. What a joy to see them again!

Meeting the needs of our guests is the top priority of Lookout Point.
More and more travelers seek to stay fit while enjoying a vacation, so we’ve partnered with the nearby Hot Springs Health & Fitness. With the negotiated discounted rate, our guests will save some money, too.
With a certificate from the inn, our guests may participate in day long activities at the fitness center, from yoga and zumba classes to the wide array of exercise equipment and weights. An added bonus are the two outdoor pools (one for kiddos and a larger pool, including lap lanes).

Of course, you’re welcome to swim in the lake. Beach towels provided. Or nap in the hammock.

Many of the birds are now nesting on the property, including the mallards. Watching the birds helps me to not take life too seriously. Somehow, I feel lighter. Thank you, David, for identifying some of our feathered friends.
