This unique natural mineral spring exits to the ground at 82* F and flows out of a fountain into two soaking pools, one under a dome cover. It has a very high sulfur content and there are large pieces of the compounds floating around. This spring is NOT for drinking water.

You DO NOT need to be staying at the hotel to use the springs.

    Turns out it's in our back yard ! We'll be checking it out and letting you know how goes it! Seems promising. They've got some nice amenities, and it's a pretty place.

    Yes, I’ve been several times and the owners were very hospitable. The ownership seems to have changed to a new “chain” hotel now though and I have not been there yet. I’ll have to update it soon and get the Ph and TDS as well while I’m enjoying floating around. :)
