The experience
A place worth getting to know.
A historic, nonprofit hot springs recreation center in the heart of downtown Steamboat Springs with nine mineral pools and a cold plunge. It doubles as a full fitness and recreation facility with two 230-foot water slides, a splash pad, climbing wall, and gym. One admission covers the entire facility for the day with no reservation needed.
Plan your visit
The supplied information does not list a general admission reservation requirement. Special services, capacity limits, and seasonal availability may still need advance planning.
