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!

8 Broads & Jay
As Innkeeper of Lookout Point Lakeside Inn, I was delighted to join 8 Broads in the Kitchen. Representing innkeepers from coast to coast, these 8 foodies share cooking tips, stories, and recipes at www.bedandbreakfastfoodie.com. Today we are gathering in Philadelphia for a fun photo shoot. Each of us selected a recipe from the blog for our individual shots (mine was a photos pouring Lookout Point’s famous strawberry soup).
In this photo, Jay Karen, CEO of the Professional Association of Innkeepers International (PAII), stopped by for the photo shoot.
I have learned so much from so much from these incredible innkeepers, and not just about food. These wise women are passionate about innkeeping: taking take of guests and providing hospitality above and beyond the call of duty.

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.

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.

It’s that special day of the week at the inn: Chocolate Covered Wednesdays! Around here, we love Wednesdays. If you’re a chocolate lover, what’s not to love about this day?
This morning for breakfast we served strawberry fruit sundaes with chocolate syrup drizzled on top! At our reception this afternoon we will have chocolate cookies and chocolate covered strawberries. Our guests will return from dinner to a small chocolate bag of hearts on their door. Chocolate kisses and M&Ms are also located throughout the inn.
Chocolate covered Wednesdays are a perfect way to heal a chocolate craving. To cure your sweet tooth, call Kristie at the inn and reserve your room!
