    Just got back from Stanley Spring in Rome Georgia. Once I was within 1/4 mile from the area the air started to smell fresh like juiced cucumbers.

    Turns out that I made a simple error in driving by taking a right instead of a left at one point so I asked an old man with a soft voice and a foot long beard if he knew the location of the spring, he gave me perfect directions thankfully. But aside from that, it was easy to find. I just wanted to share a bit of my adventure.

    I filled up about 12 gallons of some of the best spring water I have ever had and left an appropriate donation. I took my shoes off, wore some shorts and a tank top and basically took a shower in the spring spout. It felt amazing! I felt like I was humming with energy for about 1 hour. I am very grateful for those that posted this information here on findaspring.

    Started using this Spring in Feb 2011. Ph was just under 7, clear and about 62 degrees. We even tested for particulates a few simple ways and none found (to the naked eye), all wonderful and this is some great tasting spring water. A tad heavier in taste to due mineral content. Using about 10 gals a week and have been back twice. In March, a small amount of green string algae was growing on the PVC spout, but hey! It was a natural filter! This is a very nice public spot with recent addition of gravel to the drive, so donations are being used appropriately. Gratitude!!

    Woah~!

    First off, thanks to everyone that keeps this site going, and to Joe & Jeremiah Smith who foundaspring, for us all. This water is amazing. I pulled into the gravel driveway at around 10:00pm and the place was lit by several lampposts. 

    I filled up 20 gallons worth of nice cool spring water, and rinsed my hands and entire upper body in the spring. It took my about 2 hours to get back home, but my hands and hair feel stronger. I’m not even kidding, it feels like what “real” water would feel like. I’m blown away.

    Directions are spot-on, From Atlanta, take 75N to exit 306, LEFT off the exit. Exactly 13 miles on 140 and you’ll see a sign for Old Dalton Road. Turn RIGHT, go down 0.4 miles and it’ll be the fenced-in, graveled, and nicely lit parking lot on the LEFT.

    payitforward, BO

    Just moved down to Sarasota FL and I gotta say, I truly miss our Stanley Spring adventures. :( We have a few springs down here but nothing as clear and cool as Stanley in Rome. We’ll have to load the car up with jugs the next time we make a trip to Atlanta to visit family. Thank you all for the great comments! PS, anybody have a TDS meter to test the water at Stanley Spring? If not, SurThrival sells a great one: http://www.surthrival.com/TDS-meter.html

    the spring is up for sale, does anyone know why or how much it cost? It would suck to lose the spring…. Went for a ride with my family to the spring and it was worth every bit of 45 each way… The water is amazing, nothing i have ever drinking from a store bought bottle including the high end water, like fiji water for example… I’m going back as long as the spring stays open….

    Looking forward to going, A.D has it been sold?
