Mayberry Springs is a historic traveler's accommodation and early resort on United States Route 270 near Crystal Springs, Arkansas. Located roughly midway between Hot Springs and Mount Ida, the main surviving structure is a single-story wood frame structure with vernacular Greek Revival styling. A shed-roof porch extends across its front, ending in an enclosed room at one end. The building was probably built about 1895, but the site has a documented history as a stagecoach stop and bathhouse at least as far back as 1850. Historic archaeological remains at the site include cabin foundations and multiple wellheads.[2]

The property was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1990.[1]
