Description:
Spring flows from a pipe, is well guarded by thick, thorny plants. The Wilson’s had a homestead on this site beginning in 1911. I imagine the pipe is from that time. Nothing but stone, concrete, and the pipe remains. A bent tree near the path points to the exact location of this water source. This spring is located on the upper edge of a canyon of sandstone carved by the flow of several springs. The area is the “driftless area,” having never been covered by glaciers.
Nearest Address

Follow a gravel trail, take a left on a grassy trail, walk past a scenic overlook and there will soon be a sign for the spring house (which is mostly dry inside), look to the left of the main trail and you will see a bent tree which points to where the piped spring is actually located, about fifteen feet off the trail to the left in thick brush.

Description
The spring emerges in the back corner of a spring house that was used for generations of farmers. Once out of the house, it continues to create the spectacular Stephens’ Falls nearby. The area gets a lot of foot traffic because of the falls and one will have to be creative in order to fill large bottles. Gov. Dodge also contains two other spring houses, but the Stephens’ Falls spring is the most accessible, clean, and active.
The park does caution in a brochure: “although it looks tempting, we advise you to refrain from sampling the water.” The other two springs aren’t tempting anyway, but you may not be able to resist the temptation at Stephens’.
Nearest Address
Governor Dodge State Park 4175 State Highway 23
Directions from Nearest Address
After entering park, continue North until you see the sign for Stephens’ Falls, it is a short walk from the road and hard to miss.
