Bathhouse Row consists of eight bathhouses constructed between 1892 and 1923. The first photo is undated.
Here are the two bathhouses that are still operating and two that have been re-purposed.
Buckstaff
This is the only bathhouse that has operated continuously since it was built in 1912. It has 27,000 sq.ft. of space and can handle 1,000 customers per day. The first photo is dated 1912.
Quapaw
Quapaw was built in 1922 and is the only other bathhouse still operating. Although closed in 1984, it reopened in 2008. The first photo shows the dome being constructed in 1922.
Lamar
The Lamar Bathhouse opened in 1923 and closed in 1985. It now houses the National Park Service offices, a museum, and store. The first photo is undated.
Fordyce
Fordyce Bathhouse opened in 1915. At 28,000 sq.ft., it was the largest bathhouse, yet the first to go out of business. It now houses the National Park Visitor Center and a museum. The first photo is dated 1915.
Hale
The Hale Bathhouse opened in 1892 and had numerous modifications thereafter. It closed in 1978 and is now a luxury hotel–the only hotel in Hot Springs NP. The first photo is dated 1892.
