If you’re looking for a quiet, relaxing, spa experience, this isn’t it. It’s more targeted towards tourism and a family friendly poolside atmosphere than a spa. It was expensive, but it did provide you with reentry all day, unlike Iron Mountain. I was expecting it to be more of a luxurious place, but it did not feel so. The grill and snack bar reminded me of a baseball game, and the grill closed at 4. No alcoholic drinks were allowed outside the grill area, so you couldn’t sip by the springs. The springs were great, I enjoyed the mineral baths and how they became adult only after 5, but it wasn’t the experience I was looking for. Also! It does not have a lazy river! I thought it did from the pictures, but it’s actually a tube slide.

Wasn't worth the $30+ dollars that I paid for a day pass. I was done after 90 minutes. The water slides and kids area was closed (it's only open on weekends from 12-5)-kids area. The hottest pool was over 100°F. It was nice, like being in a swimming pool sized hot tub with waterfall. Seating was provided under most waterfalls. In the great pool they had special seats for neck massagers and fountains for shoulder massagers. There's an area in the great pool where you can do laps, and after that section there was another section with a diving board that was around 12ft deep. Plenty of friendly lifeguards too. The snack bar was closed, but there was another spot on site for food. No swimsuit? The gift shop has a HUGE variety of bikinis, swimsuits and swim trunks. The lockers are FREE.

Is this expensive? Yes, it is! Is it worth it? Yes, 100%!! My family of four paid over $200.00. And I would do it again in a heartbeat. The water is crystal clear blue and doesn't smell like sulfur. The river ride is worth the wait. It uses the spring water, so it's warm. We stay for over 5 hours. Next time, I will make sure we can stay all day. The big pool was a comfortable 92° and the smaller pool was hot hot but in a good way. They have great restrooms with showers, which included soap. Which smelled pretty good, actually. Restaurants were pricey, but the food was good. I would highly recommend this place.

Excellent experience! I just went in the evening, I wish they had 1/2 day passes. After 5 the newer pools are for adults only which is nice. All the pools were clean and I saw someone testing the water often. Nice shower changing rooms with lockers. I only wish I'd brought my own towel. The ones they rent are the cheapest small scratchy ones.

Nice and bad at the same time. You pay a lot for so little. 3 pools closes at 5 an 4 other closes at 6. And they say we’re open until 10pm. Which is not. The food service closes at 8 pm. You pay for everything nothing is included. To use a towel is $5. Food and Drink are not allowed while the food is very poor and super expensive. Even more, the chairs don’t have a table next to it in order to increase the capacity.
