On April 21st, I will be taking a trip for Spring Break weekend to Hot Springs! I didn’t have time to plan a long distance trip packed with activities due to the massive load of course work I took on this semester (BUT THE PAYOFF IS GRADUATION!!!!). So I decided to settle for a small 3.5-hour drive to our neighboring state. The main attraction to Hot Springs was the presence of an amusement park but upon further investigation, I found there is a lot more to experience.
Magic Springs is going to be our main priority, but I have been told there are a few places we must check out.
- Brick House Grill. This will be the location for dinner our first night there, due to positive word of mouth from family and friends.
- Alligator Farm. My mom says this is a must see attraction. We’ll see how we feel about visiting it once we get there.
- Bath House Row. A massage is just what the doctor ordered. What better way to relax during Spring Break than a hot stone massage in Hot Springs?
- Hot Springs Moutain Tower. I stumbled upon this gem during research on our stay. This seems like a cheap enjoyable sightseeing adventure!
I’m not sure how I’ll feel about being 1,256 feet high but it’ll definitely be an experience for the books! - Garvan Woodland Gardens. I’m not too sure how receptive my boyfriend will be towards a stroll in the garden but I’m sure it won’t take too much convincing! 210 acres of flowers and shrubs sounds like a beautiful way to spend the afternoon.
