This was a pleasant, unexpected stop on our family vacation. We just happened to be driving by when we saw Tiny Town. Our two year old is obsessed with toy trains, so we decided to stop. We found out during our visit that Tiny Town opened at this location in 1963 and has been running ever since. Its incredible to see all of the exhibits that have been operating for the better part of 6 decades. My 2 year old loved it, but so did my wife and I.

Well worth the visit! Great history story behind this tiny town! Come and visit. Has been there over 50yrs!

Love love loved this experience. You can feel the dedication and love poured into this tiny town. Only $7 per adult and one of my absolute favorite stops this trip. Highly recommend for kids, or adults with imagination. Some interactive minis, ans seeing the town at night with the lights off was great!!! So many details and almost everything is recycled materials. In one picture you can see a painted sweet gum ball, a native tree to this area.A must see!!! Only needs 15 minutes to walk through but you could spend an hour watching

First of all, very sweet man. he cherishes this place so much and it just brings it to life. buttons were a nice little touch so that you can always stay engaged. also very inexpensive. it is a must see. if you are considering visiting, don’t think twice. tiny town is the place to be. i can’t wait until the next time i come to hot springs so i can see all the hospitality and tiny wonders. :)

Absolutely loved and adored coming here. A place like this should be treasured. The man that works here dad built this miniature town with his own two hands. He put a lot of time, heart, and hard work into making Tiny Town. I was very impressed. There are a lot of buttons you can press to animate the people and trains. Some of it runs on its own though. Very friendly people that work here. On my way out his son gave me a pic of his dad sitting with Tiny Town. What a neat and interesting story. Cost $6 to get in for an adult but the experience was priceless. Im so glad I visited. Worth the visit to support a local business.

Very interesting piece of work. It is one solid structure and not several smaller pieces as I initially thought. A good portion of it contains moving parts and lights. Was worth the cheap entry fee and does not feel like a tourist trap.

It is absolutely fascinating. I highly recommend stopping by and seeing what was created out of literally scrap items to make 6 different citys in the United States.

Loved the experience, since its the operators family legacy the passion he has during the presentation is appreciated. Definitely a must visit!

Wonderful place to visit. Amazing skills used to build Tiny Town.

Amazing place to take the kids! The first time I went there I was 8 YOA.It is still as amazing today.

My husband had to be convinced to go here, but we both enjoyed this hand made treasure. It started as a plumbers Christmas town, and grew into its own little tourist attraction.

I cant say Im of the generation where roadside attractions were a staple of our trips. Certainly this falls within that vein. Though, I feel like exploring off the beaten path is worth it if you appreciate some history, trains, and craftsmanship. The story presented by the 2nd generation caretaker is interesting and you can tell he cares. This is an experience that you can spend a few bucks on and support a little bit of local history. It doesnt have extravagances or anything beyond a few minutes of interest. It may not be for everyone but I find something a little different, even if its a bit corner or dated, still refreshing in the vast array or prepacked tourism presentations.

Admission price too costly for what you get to see/do.Many of the buttons you push to see actions in the train scene dont work. It will take about 20 minutes to go through the facility.

Wow! A smile on face, the history with passion really brings the admiration that I applaud and really hope this is shared.This is a true treasure of an artist with unsurpassed passion that is shared with the public in humility and I LOVED IT!Thank God for this place. It really helped me in seeing all the work that few would apply and others keep alive, just phenomenal experience.

Love this spot! It was a one of a kind experience where a family tradition of creativity is shared with the public. The folks running this place were the sweetest people ever. My kids loved this place ages 9, 6, 3.

The amount of work put into making this Tiny Towns display made mostly from recycled/repurposed materials was incredible. I hope some folks from the current generation will step up to maintain it for future generations to enjoy.

Very nostalgic. Everything is vintage and handmade, but finely crafted. Worth it for all the vintage toy cars, boats and trains. Hand carved folks throughout the town. Many, many moving parts and scenes with buttons to push. Lots of lights, you get to see it in the dark, also. We even asked to see the underside, its all vintage, repurposed motors. Tiny gift shop for kids of all ages. Delightful tour guide, and gave us tips on visiting Hot Springs.

My grandsons loved it!!! Amazing what a family created and the detail involved. Always something new to spot no matter how long you look.

Very cool local treasure. Built by the curators father, and obviously a labor of love. Really enjoyed the visit and the conversation. Highly recommend as a fun, affordable, and unique attraction.

Theres a large miniature Town that you can walk around the outside of. Lots of buttons kids can press to make figurines and trains move. The figures are very fragile and should not be touched. Very good recreations of real locations and monuments.

Very fun little experience . The scale and detail to the tiny animatronics is very impressive must see. The owner was also very warm and friendly. If youre in the area a must see stop.

I actually havent been here yet but my family attempted to go and we arrived at 11:30 there doors and windows were locked up and I honestly had no idea where we were supposed to park. So I was assuming it was closed. I would love to visit in the future if it is still open

My husband spoke of this place when we first met as a childhood memory. We visited Hot Springs for our 1 year wedding anniversary and happened by it. Of course we had to go inside. The man that runs it was the sweetest gentleman. He gave us a history of the pieces his dad made and showed us how some of it was made. What I thought would have been boring thrilled my soul to see. There was a lot of hard work that went into creating Tiny Town and a lot of hard work keeping it going. If you are in the area its a must see.

It was so fun to look at this intricate display. I felt like a kid again just staring in wonder.

This was really cool everything is pretty much handmade Im glad we took the time to stop & have a look see.

My girlfriend and I went as part of an Easter weekend away. We thought it was closed because there were no cars in the parking lot, but were glad to see it was actually open! They do only take cash, the woman that was running admission when we arrived was so sweet and told us stories about the different pieces and showed us the interactive parts. We loved it! She even opened up underneath and showed us the motors that make it all run! After wed been there a little and a family and another worker showed up, he did a little presentation. It had cutesy jokes and he turned off the lights so we could see the moon and everything lit up. They both told us a lot about the history of the pieces and how they came to be. It was truly incredible, one of the highlights of our trip! I dont remember if there is a public restroom, but there is a little store- mostly toys and some kitschy area related items. Some things were over priced, but would have made INCREDIBLE gifts for Christmas or a kids birthday. Will definitely be going again next time were in town!!

Lots of fun. Creator had imagination. Starting to get run down but well worth the $6 to see. Its a great way to spend an hour.

We have visited Tinytown many times over the last 30+ years! Its a must for our family. Made with scraps of metal, wood, sawdust, etc. the little mountain town and trains have delighted 4 generations of our family. Its a little worn now but still worth a quick visit. Your kiddos will surely love the interactive display!

If a group of kids had built this, I would be impressed. From an adult, not so much. While it has a lot of detail, its all very crude. Ive seen many much better model trail towns. I guess the claim to fame is that he built most everything from scraps of material.

Tiny Town was absolutely amazing!!! It was incredibly intricate. Full of so many hidden scenes and characters you have to go around a few times to see it all.My favorite thing about it might be its story. The man who started it (and built most of it) used only scraps and junk or toys to create the whole thing. Even the mechanics were recycled from old dishwasher motors and what not. Loved the whole thing and Charlie (the son of the creator, and Co creator) was very informative with a slight subtle humor.Even our three year old could appreciate the fun of it!Go see Tiny Town!!! Worth every penny!

Amazing Place....So Happy we stopped in.

An absolute gem!

This is a MUST SEE if you have children and many adults also would enjoy the dedication and work that went into creating this incredible place. We were here in June 2014 and our kids from 4 to 18 were fascinated with the many trains, models and working exhibits.Tiny town is a LARGE display of scenes across America with a lot of history behind it. They have real running water in the mountains, actual working windmills and may other items to marvel at. If you ask nicely you can actually crawl under a few feet and see the inner workings of the displays that everyone of our kids found amazing. This is the best VALUE in hot springs !

Very interesting miniatures, all handmade. Interactive and animated displays. Small, but very hospitable, family owned and operated.

It was so fun, I had a great time! My favorite was the Mcdonalds, it was so cute! My entire family loved everything about Tiny Town!! We will definitely revisit in the near future. Its a must see in Hot Springs!!

Based on the differing reviews on Tiny Town, I decided to call and find out their hours. I spoke to Barbara, one of the owners, about their schedule. She said that they are in the midst of a major renovation - someone drove into their building! The trains and models are safe, thankfully. Nevertheless, getting everything out back together means they will be closed until the end of February 2017 with plans to reopen the beginning of March 2017. Their hours will be 10-2 M-F with similar hours on Saturdays and closed on Sundays.Hope this helps!

Its pretty amazing what the family created. I guess I should have given it 5 stars, but it is handmade and some of it wasnt working the day we went through the place.

Great little family attraction. Wonderful history of how it expanded and the clever creation from everyday objects.

It was perfect. So much detail.

The exhibit was fascinating. The owner was very pleasant and so proud of his dads legacy. Stop by and say hi to Charles --you wont be disappointed.Wanda Zee, Massachusetts .

I cant review this highly enough. Its an incredibly impressive feat of hand crafting and engineering. Nothing is electronic (all electric), and everything is made out of junk and household materials. I came here as a kid 20 years ago and just returned. I appreciate it way more as an adult. Admission is $6 at the time of this writing. The man who does the tours is incredibly passionate about the project. His father started it and created most of what you will see. I uploaded a bunch of pictures for you to see, but you must visit if you can!

We all loved this place. If you like quirky, this is it. Owner was pleasant and very funny. Thank you for keeping Tiny Town.

U can spend 10min to 20 minutes max good to go once.

Great collection and cool history on the history of Tiny Town. Prices are a little high but fun to do

It should probably say closed on there website til spring. Very upset I drove all the way down there for nothing!

Always something to see and something to learn

If you’re in Hot Springs you gotta see Tiny Town.

Great for a young train enthusiast. Wonderful story behind the making of Tiny Town.

Artwork with some trains. Kid friendly.

As of July 2015 still open. Kids loved it. Some attractions were under repair but whole town was still amazing. Worth the stop for sure!

I took my grandson to this it was my first time there I was really impressed at the workmanship that I saw.Im planning on going back

Place place everyone needs to see.

Went when I was younger...loved seeing our town tiny!

Whole family loved this place what craftsmanship the animations were amazing

I rate it with a 3 on all levels. However, this attraction no longer exists...unfortunately
