Crystal Ridge Distillery 

5.0

Hot Springs, AR
  • Up to 250 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor & outdoor

Located within walking distance of Central Avenue and Bath House Row, Crystal Ridge Distillery sits on the corner of Broadway and Grand. When first constructed between 1910 and 1920 for F.C. Stearns as a warehouse for their hardware, feed and furniture stores, the building was on the outskirts of downtown. With the current size of Hot Springs, it is now near the heart. Times change. Over those years, the building was built in three sections, which now account for the beautiful, interior brick walls (18” thick). Back then, a sawmill was set up on-site to cut the timbers, posts and beams. You can still see the circular saw marks on the wood. Now, it is Crystal Ridge Distillery. Hand-built with state-of-the-art craftsmanship for its time, we revitalized the structure with modern amenities while keeping the 1920 authenticity. Adding our own industrial twist, all elements of our distillery are highly energy efficient and the many windows provide an abundance of natural lighting.

“The team at Crystal Ridge Distillery was so friendly and helpful with our rehearsal dinner! They accommodated our large group for a last minute tasting, and all their staff was fun, laughing, and joking with us. The seltzers and moonshines they make are the bomb, and I strongly recommend at least doing the tasting if not stocking your event bar with a few of their in-house selections! The decor is beautiful, has a rustic charm, and the private event space is a reasonable enough size for 50-60 people maximum. They have an easily accessible, large parking lot which is great for out of town guests, and handicapped accessible entry! We were so pleased with Crystal Ridge and will definitely be back as a customer!”

“As a photographer, one of my favorite places to shoot a wedding and/or reception is The Barn at Lost Creek. The venue has a beautiful outdoor wedding space and the inside serves as both wedding and reception area. Both are target rich environments for excellent portraits. The food is always excellent and Margo is an outstanding host.”
