Of course, when I chose to visit Eureka Springs, I had to experience the last remaining original…read morebath houses in Eureka Springs. I got the works; the steam cabinet, a mineral bath, and a massage. I was so relaxed by the end of it I could barely walk or think straight. I even fell asleep during the massage! Only downside for a more modern customer is that the spa layout is completely original. There are no sound barrier walls or anything. The walls and doors aren't floor to ceiling, so one can hear toilets flushing, tubs draining, etc. But it's great for feeling transported back to the old holistic, homeopathic ways.

Beware of Tyler, the tyrant psychotic sociopath owner of The Palace Bath House!…read more I visited the Palace Hotel and Bath House expecting peace and relaxation. Instead, I walked out shaking, humiliated, and in tears -- an experience I will never forget for all the wrong reasons. The mineral bath area consists of small cubicles with no ceilings, something I was never told. I didn't hear or see anyone else, so I genuinely believed I was alone. While in the bath I was trying to meditate but then someone started playing very distracting music that interrupted my meditation and I asked politely for the music to be turned off when someone changed it to something distracting. I made normal, reasonable requests -- a towel, a time extension -- nothing out of the ordinary for a spa. When I went upstairs afterward, everything changed instantly. The owner, Tyler (appeared to be in her 40s -50s had shoulder length completely gray hair) approached me out of nowhere and told me she was "astonished by my behavior" and that I was "the rudest person" she had ever had as a customer. I was stunned. I had no idea what she was talking about. She accused me of "yelling" and "ruining the experience" for others -- even though I had spoken calmly and had no idea the entire facility shared open acoustics. I immediately apologized, over and over, because I felt horrible. I was crying, shaking, and trying to explain that I truly believed I was alone. Instead of listening, she doubled down. She told me I was "blacklisted" and needed to leave. Meanwhile, other patrons -- the very people she claimed I had disturbed -- came to comfort me. They told me I had done nothing wrong. They hugged me. They reassured me. They told me her reaction was completely out of proportion. I ended up having a panic attack from the shock and humiliation. My entire day was ruined. Days later, I am still shaken. When I tried to call to request a refund, I discovered my number had been blocked. No conversation. No explanation. No willingness to resolve anything. I have never in my life been treated the way I was treated at this business. I left feeling berated, belittled, and publicly humiliated for something I didn't even know I had done wrong. The lack of sound privacy, the aggressive confrontation, the refusal to communicate afterward -- all of it paints a very clear picture. Bottom-line, BEWARE of The Palace Hotel and Bath House and the tyrant psychotic sociopath who runs this establishment, TYLER! My experience was emotionally devastating, and no guest or human in general deserves to be treated this way. Consider yourself warned.

I am a well-seasoned traveler, and I don't give stars freely. But....Flamingo Springs Trailer…read moreResort with its kitschy, retro travel trailers set around a lovely pool with all sorts of fun things to keep you entertained has definitely earned theirs. Situated in the Ozarks of NW Arkansas, down a lovely country lane just south of Prairie Grove, Arkansas, FSTR provides a quiet place in the country to sit by the pool, wander the forest near the resort, or party and play with your adult friends (they are 21 and up, except on special kid-friendly dates.) As the sign says, there's no wi-fi, so talk to each other. We did - making quick friends with a couple of girlfriends from Hot Springs and a young couple from Oklahoma. We took our 4WD and toured some of the dirt roads and trails just south of FSTR, enjoying a brief visit to a very busy Devil's Den State Park. If you've forgotten something, they probably have it. Seriously, there's everything: Atari, VHS player with a good movie collection, a jukebox, matches, new toothbrushes, shampoo/conditioner, a pizza cooker, knives, forks, etc...AND the kitchen sink!! This silly, but lovely, trailer hood includes trailers with a theme to fit anyone's fancy. These include a "Friends" themed Airstream, a rock-n-roll themed Shasta (my abode for the weekend,) Candy Cane Lane (an Airstream that definitely has the perfect-over-the-top Christmas decorations inside and out!) and others that provide the perfect mix of whimsy, community and comfort. Speaking of comfort, the only thing that kept Zack and Laura (the outrageously creative and talented proprietors of this crazy place) from getting that 5th Star was the mattress in my "room." Although, the thinner mattress is likely retro-correct, as I know these cute trailers weren't known for true comfort, just convenience, my nearly 50-year-old body needs a bit more cushion to be truly comfortable while sleeping. Upgrading to a slightly better quality mattress would have gotten them a higher score on the comfort scale. Cell Service: Spotty, But you wont care. Wi-Fi: None, I hope they NEVER add it. Can you find it: Yes, provided you use a better app than the older, never been updated, GPS in our Jeep. Good Thing: Kitschy Decor, Clean campers and bathrooms. Bad Thing: Mattresses. Favorite Thing: Instant sense of community. Final Thoughts: Visit FSTR in NWA. Pretty awesome.

Immediately wishing I could retract & she said, "I guess you follow our site & well you know I am doing the best I can running this but, I have a lot great support from Friends and Family, they are so wonderful.." I just stuttered & apologized as I have no words for a woman of this caliber, demeanor & honest fortitude..., Packed up all the girly accoutrements such as s'mores, grill stuff, libations, sunscreen & bikinis & Peyton I began our journey!!! Enamored my the rambling greenery, a abundant & rogue wildlife & upon final arrival the site spoke boldly of embodiment & fulfillment of a dream with ounce by ounce lovely precision! Highly animated & individually themed retro airstreams & campers surrounded a cute round pool with charcoal grills & lawn furniture & purple gnomes reminiscent of "Raising Arizona" or your a Hollywood set of a 60's summer getaway... Invention of a dreamscape surrounded in ice cream floaties, VCR tapes of the "Lost Boys" & "Sixteen Candles" with a jukebox that intermittently plays Elvis, "Dirty Dancing" soundtrack & board games from Yahtzee to Hungry Hippos.... We made a memory & it was intricately etched out, dreamt & wished for by these Angels who loved believed & never hesitated in following through despite Amy obstacles or opposition. Terriyaki burgers over charcoal grill, s'mores over campfire, slumber party in our dreamsicke orange camper with White snake cassette tapes.... Nothing & I do mean nothing will ever take this away because the beauty of a vision fulfilled by service savvy, salt of our earth, loving people who respect, love & adore each other gleams in every facet of each detail of what I consider another familial home! Godspeed & love with all my being to the beautiful Laura, her adoring children & the man who beams from above!!! This place is your next summer stop off & cell phone service is fondly not an option due to being past the grid mark and agar not!!!
