At $3 a person and with an adults only hot pool, these springs are an awesome stop. There are two pools for all ages, and free showers at each pool to rinse off before you enter as well as coin op showers if you want privacy / a real shower in the nude. There are shaded picnic areas, drinking water, a simple store nearby with basics like beer, ice cream and souvenirs with a super kind owner who can be summoned by ringing a large prayer bell. You can also camp here but we found it busy and crowded after boondocking.
