Unique National Park as it is more focused on historical buildings than nature. Of course, Hot Springs wouldn’t exist without the natural hot springs but the highlight here is the bathhouse row. Ar… Full review by M3349ZSjasonp

Q:
Where can you get in the hot springs at? Is there a cost involved? Do you need swim clothes? Is it crowded in march, or April?

You can't get into the hot springs. The water is about 143 F, too hot for humans. There are bath houses and spas where you can take a soak in the waters and there are various thermal springs fountains around the area where you can fill cups, bottles, jugs, etc. I would guess it would be crowded around spring breaks in mid March and the week before Easter in April. But, not as busy as in the summer, when folks take advantage of the area lakes.

Sorry! I do not know the answer to this, but rangers with the Park Authority might know. I would touch base with the National Parks Authority and see what info they have. You also might check out Eureka Springs farther north in Arkansas which has hot springs. But first and foremost I would check with your pediatrician to see if there is any health-related reason for the ban on children in the hot springs. Good luck! Hope you are successful

Q:
Do they have bats that fly at dusk on bathhouse row? They had hundreds, of what appeared to be bats, flying in circles over one bathhouse. It was the coolest sight. But I haven’t seen anything about bats during my research about hot springs. Why isn’t this talked about? Or am I crazy and it was something else?
A:
We did not see any bats, but that doesn’t mean they’re not there. We have them where we live; depends on the season and humidity.
