Sulphur Springs is a unique bed and breakfast. It's on the edge of a large national park so if you like nature and hiking, this is the place for you. If you like off the beaten path kinds of places with do it yourself entertainment, this is the place for you. If you like HOT mineral baths and delicious breakfasts, this is the place for you. (Update 9/11--the last time we went, the HOT mineral bath was not available due to machinery malfunction. I don't know if it's working now--ask Charlie, the owner when you book.)
I would like to say that if you want chic place with a squeaky clean Mickey Mouse atmosphere, this is not the place for you. My husband, I and several of our friends have stayed with Charlie and Cherie 5 times and we plan on going back many more times. We hike,we debate, we sit around the campfire talking, laughing and listening as our more musically gifted members sing and play their guitars and fiddles.
There is no TV and there is no room service but we love staying there because it offers us the chance to unwind, to breathe deeply and to really enjoy each others' company. Plus, the inn's owner Charlie is a knowledgeable host who willingly provides what his guests need to have a great time. And we always have a great time. I suggest that IF you can leave your Hampton Inn preconceptions at home, you should try visiting the Sulphur Springs Inn for a unique visit that you'll be telling all your friends about.
A TripAdvisor reader suggested I amend my review because she took Benedryl on the trip with her and she didn't need it. However there are LOTS of OUTSIDE cats so I still suggest you bring Benedryl if you're allergic to cats.
