Dennis and Diana Simpson live on the beautiful shores of Lake Desoto. We enjoy the magnificent beauty and the super nice people that live here in Hot Springs Village. Someone asked me one time why I liked living in the village. It is a good question because I am a local guy just about 20 miles down the road in Benton AR. I said that it is wonderful all the adults live in Hot Springs Village. Hot Springs Village and its balance of price, beauty, security, and super nice people are for exploring. We are people who love to be out to spend time outdoors and be good to their neighbors. It is a modern-day Mayberry.
