Quapaw Bathhouse Details
The Quapaw Bathhouse sits on the site of two previous bathhouses, the Horseshoe and Magnesia. Originally built in 1922, it was named for a Native American tribe that once lived in the area. The Spanish Colonial Revival building, with a large, tile covered dome, is one of the most recognizable features of Bathhouse Row. The original bathhouse closed in 1968, but reopened a year later as Health Services, Inc., which shut down in 1984. The National Park Service began rehabilitating the six unoccupied bathhouses in 2004, including the Quapaw, which received a new roof and skylights. In 2007, in concurrence with Hot Springs National Park's 175th anniversary, the NPS leased the building to [Quapaw Baths](http://quapawbaths.com/), which now offers visitors a number of spa experiences.
