Hot Springs, Arkansas


Are you thinking about moving to Hot Springs, AR., but do not know what types of real estate are available? Hot Springs has anything you need. From lake homes to town houses on golf courses to apartment living, you can find what you are looking for in this historic town.


One of the most popular reasons to move to the area are the three lakes giving it the nickname of the "Tri Lake" area. Lake Hamilton is the most popular for boating enthusiasts. This lake is well known for bass fishing and is host to a FLW tournament. Let's not forget that some of this lake front real estate was once owned by Al Capone!


If a quieter area is more preferable then perhaps Lake Catherine is for you. Located just minutes from Hot Springs and Malvern, Arkansas, it is a less developed lake shore with more of a natural look. Because part of the lake is located inside a state park, homes for sale here can be harder to come by.


Do you like to scuba? Or perhaps you want hills and mountains surrounding you property? Then Lake Ouachita could be just what you are looking for. Set in the stunning Ouachita National Forest, the clear water is enjoyed by scuba divers from around the country. The hills and mountains surrounding the lake provide a tranquil setting to your home. And like Lake Catherine, the surrounding national forest is a popular camping site.


If golfing is your life and you hate to be far from the links, take note of this. With several award winning golf courses in Hot Springs and nearby Hot Springs Village, you're sure to find a home right on the links that will suit your desires. There are also popular "over 55" subdivisions near several courses if you want a slightly quieter area to live in or do not want any golf balls in your back yard except your own.


Are you a college student who doesn't want to have the hassle of living in a dorm? The area offers a wide range of property. From small houses and apartments on Lake Hamilton to larger apartment complexes in town; you are sure to find a home within your budget. Hot Springs in located less than thirty minutes from Henderson State University and Ouachita Baptist University in Arkadelphia, Arkansas.
