experience hot springs without sulfur.
Pros:

It is a good location and quite isolated. There is no food which we did not plan for. We were also not told that the bigger pool would be closed one of the days we were there. They should also keep a few signs along the way on the road to the property as the cell signal is quite weak.

What a beautiful space to disconnect, unwind, and escape and just an hour away from the Springs. Very grateful for the ethic of the community, the service, and the experience!
