About Eureka Springs
Eureka Springs is a Victorian spa town in the Ozark Mountains of north-west Arkansas, built on steep hillsides around natural springs.
Eureka Springs lies in the Ozark Mountains of north-west Arkansas and grew in the 1880s as a spa resort around springs thought to have healing waters. Its steep, winding streets are lined with Victorian houses, stone stairways and small shops, and the whole historic downtown is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The Crescent Hotel, a limestone hotel opened in 1886, overlooks the town from a hilltop.
