Guidebook for Hot Springs
Food Scene
I love coffee shops and Kollective is one of my favorites. It's right downtown and has a great selection of coffee and tea. These people know how to make a good cup of joe and have a great breakfast and lunch menu that is usually changing to stay fresh. This is a great place to people watch and enjoy the old building turned coffee shop. Open mic poetry every Wednesday evening.

Rose's burger is one of the best in town. The Bees Knees Beer is a summer favorite. Rose started this brewery and changed the landscape of our city. She has turned a stunning old bathhouse into a stunning new brewery and restaurant. There's nothing like it. She and her brewer, Jim, even uses local hot spring water to make their beers. With a tasty menu and an excellent view and location in the heart of downtown, you have to visit Superior.

When we recommend a place that takes you out of the downtown area, there’s a really good reason for it. Lost Creek doesn’t look like much but the food is some of THE BEST in town. Our personal favorite is the country fried steak, fried cabbage and okra.

Private Trailhead
Just down the street from our property is a private trailhead (that we have permission to use) leading you to North and Hot Springs Mountains between our neighborhood, downtown and the Gulpha Gorge. There are beautiful overlooks, gorgeous plant life & wild life. There are instructions and maps in each unit on the property. We recommend using the AllTrails app to navigate the marked trails.
