Additional Details:
The Rockafellow Bath House and Hotel, managed by C. A. Rockafellow, was rebuilt in 1901. It was known as the oldest bath house in Hot Springs, offering private dressing rooms and water direct from Old Egg Spring, famous for boiling eggs. Services included needle, shower, and vapor baths, and an electric massage department, all under the same roof as the hotel. Patrons were advised to avoid catching cold from the baths.
