Garvan Woodland Gardens "Lights on the Landscape"

If you have never been to the Christmas lights at Garvan Gardens you should be it on your to do list for next year. It should become a tradition for every family! It really is like being in an enchnated forest. It was so lovely to walk through the beautiful lights. At one point you stop for hot apple cider, at another point you stop and roast marshmallows and then at another you can have hot chocolate with marshmallows if you would like. There even have the Christmas trains out at the end. If you would prefer not to walk they do have gold carts to drive people. We loved the stroll around and you can bring your dog.

There are several places along the way that are perfect for taking pictures. Beautiful cottages, stunning chandeliers, a candy cane lane, toy soilders, a big fish, butterflies and flowers and of course, lots and lots of trees. There really is to much to describe.

I saw someone from the gardens on the news and he said they had 1.7 million lights. Strung end to end they would reach between Hot Springs and Little Rock. Now that's ALOT of lights!

Kathy from Hot Springs, AR

Hi everyone,

I'm Kathy and I live in Hot Springs, AR. with my wonderful family. I have a great husband and two great teenage boys.

We are your typical family staying pretty busy with everyday life.

We earn our living by flipping houses on Lake Hamilton and also by renting our vacation home and our parents vacation home out as vacation rentals. We really love doing both of these as they each have their own interesting challenges.

The vacation rental business sort of requires me to keep up with what's going on in Hot Springs but thats ok because I truly love this town. There really is something fun and interesting always going on. There is great food, entertainment and shopping. And certainly a kind word and a smile are things you will find in abundance here.
