Bathing in ancient water
Hot Springs National Park, Arkansas
When you ease your bones into the naturally heated spring water in Hot Springs National Park in Arkansas, you’re bathing in water that fell as rain 4,400 years ago—around the same time as the pyramids were built. The water flows up from the depths of the Zig Zag Mountains at 143°F, but don’t worry; it cools to a less lobstery 98 to 100°F before it reaches the park’s historic bathhouses. Which brings up another unusual aspect of the park: Bathhouse Row is located right in the heart of the town of Hot Springs. If you like to earn your soaks, you can also explore 26 miles of hiking trails that wind through the nearby forested mountains.
The fall foliage in the area is brilliant. Hot Springs is only 45 min. From Little Rock where the President Bill Clinton Library is located.
Within the condo complex there is a swimming pool and tennis/basketball court. My condo is lakefront, front row, and on top floor. Others are advertised as lakefront but should be listed as lakeview. Currently, pool is closed due to covid-19. Great views in a lovely serene retreat. Year round water...Main channel.. Great sunsets. Lake Hamilton allows water skiing, which many smaller lakes nearby do not.
There are several beautiful lakes and state parks with hiking, lodging and camping within 45 min. Drive. There is even one for diamond mining where some lucky people really have found large, expensive diamonds in recent years. Best yet they get to keep them!
