The spring was used on the Vassar estate to feed large fountains. The walking trails have a guided tour map that shows you ruins and tells you about the history of the spring. Originally the statue on the spring house was a dog.

    Maybe, if your drinking it for a long period of time. Daniel talks about this in his videos. It's much better than drinking Poughkeepsie water, I know that for sure. I drank it for a couple weeks when we couldn't get to the St. Cabrini spring. It was good to me!

    This is a VERY hard water, according to both Daniel and David Wolfe. Probably very good for bathing, doing dishes, laundry, etc….. but I would be very careful to read what David Wolfe says about hard water causing calcification and arthritis before consuming this water.
