Visited on a Thursday around sunset. Had a lovely time. It wasn't too crowded, but almost impossible to find an empty pool. Still such an enjoyable experience. Everyone kept to themselves. My favorite pool was the Dead Sea pool. It was fun hoping around and trying each pool. Loved that the establishment was right on the river, that definitely added to the ambiance. The bathrooms & showers were very clean, the staff was so nice, and the merchandise was so cute! Highly recommend!

I cannot express how happy I am that they started doing the all day passes again! This is the nicest hot spring I’ve ever been to, and I visit Glenwood Springs specifically for the Iron Mountain Hot Springs! We came in the middle of a blizzard at night, so my pictures aren’t great, but it’s right up against the river with lovely views. I really enjoyed the 21+ side with all the different pools based on different countries. I loved the fresh water and sea salt pools too. Even though it was snowing, I still did the polar plunge. I love the feeling of the rocks on my feet too! Very nice to have a locker to leave our stuff in too.

Place was so cool. First time for me doing any of this stuff. Me and my girl and her sister had a few drinks and relaxed in the world 21+ area. We even did the cold plunge a bunch before enjoying the hot springs. 10/10 experience. Well worth or drive from Breckenridge. Definitely recommend booking your time for sunset!

Iron Mountain Hot Springs is a wonderful place to enjoy hot springs and beautiful scenery! There are so many different pools, with varying temperatures and it's so much fun to go from trying them ALL! There's a stunning view of the mountains and river from every single pool! Amazing! The cafe leaves a lot to be desired - the food is pretty over priced and not great. I ordered "burnt end nachos" and it was not very good. The meat was NOT burnt ends and the chips tasted like stale chips from a bag. The kombucha was great! Overall, I'd recommend eating before you go, or getting a day pass to eat somewhere in Glenwood and return to soak.

My family and I had such a wonderful time here. The locker rooms were clean and well kept, we had locked lockers to keep our things in which was nice. They had a place to refill your water bottles at but also little stations with paper cups to get water at if you forgot to bring one. There are plenty of chairs to lay down on and so many different options to sit in different temperature hotsprings. Of course not to mention how beautiful the views are. The staff are nice and kept the place nice and clean.
