Enjoy a quieter side of Eureka Springs during the Autumn Get Together, November 13 to 19, 2026. Between October’s crowds and the holiday rush, November brings a quieter downtown, with more room to browse the shops and take your time over dinner. With lower room rates, cool weather, and the last of the fall color still in the hills, it’s a good time for a downtown stay at the Basin Park Hotel.
Why stay at the Basin Park Hotel in November?
Stay downtown, and spend more of your getaway enjoying Eureka Springs—not looking for parking. At the Basin Park Hotel, Basin Spring Park is right outside, with shops, galleries, restaurants, and bars just a walk away. Browse for a while, drop your bags in your room, and head back out for dinner without moving your car.
November leaves room for a little of everything: a morning hike at Lake Leatherwood City Park, an afternoon exploring downtown, and dinner overlooking the park at the Balcony Restaurant. Finish with a drink at Jack Rabbett’s Whisky Bar. Your room is just upstairs.
Friday, November 13: The Insiders Tour of the Basin Park Hotel
The Autumn Get Together opens Friday evening, November 13, with the Insiders Tour: Tastes and Tales from Top to Bottom.
This is the one night of the year when the people who run this hotel take you behind the scenes themselves, telling the stories of this building and this town while you taste your way through the evening. It is part history, part hospitality, and entirely Basin Park. If you have stayed with us before and thought you knew this hotel, this is the night that changes that.
Tours run throughout the evening, with another tour opening as one books up, and seating for each one is limited. Tickets are $84 per person and include drinks, tales, and a food tasting.
Saturday, November 14: Candlelight Concert at the Crescent Hotel
On Saturday, November 14, our sister hotel, the 1886 Crescent Hotel and Spa, hosts the Candlelight Concert, with a reception beginning at 6:00 PM.
Musician Dave Polo performs by candlelight, blending ukulele with electronic sounds for a performance that is unlike a regular concert night. It is intimate, a little unexpected, and a good reason to spend Saturday evening up at the Crescent before coming back down the hill to the Basin.

Sunday to Thursday, November 15 to 19: $99 Community of Friends Rate
Here is where the week gets really good, and where most visitors miss out by going home on Sunday.
From Sunday, November 15 through Thursday, November 19, rooms at the Basin Park Hotel are $99 per night with our Community of Friends rate. It is our way of saying thank you to the friends who come back to Eureka Springs year after year, and an invitation to become one of them if this is your first November here.
Book the $99 Community of Friends Rate
Stay for the two event nights, then slow down. Midweek in November is when you get the Eureka Springs locals love: quiet trails, unhurried shopping, a seat at the bar, and time to actually talk to the people who live and work here. Take a hike, book time at Spa1905, work your way through the downtown shops and galleries at your own pace, and let someone else cook.
Come for a night or two at the rate. Most people who do end up wishing they had stayed longer.
