Looking for a soak?!
With the world's deepest hot spring in the heart of town, there's more than one option to soak and relax.
This a great hot spring pool for families and to go to when The Springs Resort is busy. Also has an outdoor hot tub and separate men's/women's indoor hot tub baths. Mostly locals and cheaper than the resort. Easy to walk from the house as it's just at the corner of the street.
