During the Temperance movement and before the Prohibition Era she was known to go to taverns and break up the alcohol and beer kegs by way of an ax. The area her home is in is really quaint and I loved all of the eccentric cottages along the winding road. The house was not open and I didn't see anywhere to park. I parked off up the road and walked back to view the house. The house is right on top of the street and the back of the house has a drop off a cliff of some sorts. I'm glad I stopped by, but wish I could have explored further.

We must have come in the dry season; I heard some people couldn't get down to the actual spring…read more Everything was easily accessible - and the walkway was well above water level. We spent roughly two hours here. We first watched two short videos in the visitor center - maybe 15 minutes in total. One video was on the history of the area; the other video was about the spring itself. The man at the desk recommended that we go down the stairs, hang a left and the bottom and circle the area clockwise. That worked great. It is over a hundred stairs down to the walkway that parallels the Blue Spring. After seeing the spring, there are paths around flowers in a few gardens, some equipment from decades ago, a cave-ish overhang, chances to see wildlife, then finally a gradual incline to get back up to the top - with a boardwalk as well. There is a gift shop. Restrooms are actually just outside the entrance. Signs help throughout. Wasn't crowded in September.

We started at Basin Spring Park - right in the center of town with a history of how things started. Megan, our guide, then took us below ground to where buildings were centered prior to moving upward due to mudslides. For much of the rest of the tour, we traversed the main business street really from one end to the other (Spring St) with architectural history, stories about buildings, stories about the town at various points in time, and another spring at the far end. You finish about 3 blocks from where you start - a gradual uphill. Megan was great; didn't need a script; answered all questions and ensured everyone could see everything. Great intro to Eureka Springs. Interesting there were 10,000 people living here in the late 1800s, and now just over 2,000.

Super fun to go to the headquarters and check out the haunted dolls and Knick knacks. I definitely learned a lot about the town and enjoyed the evening walk, even if I definitely didn't see any ghosts or feel scared. Our tour Roz (hopefully I'm spelling that right) was great, and she even demonstrated using a pendulum to communicate with spirits after the tour was finished. Highly recommend for people who enjoy spooky history but not necessarily being scared.
