A bathhouse has been constructed over the largest spring and the water temperature is regulated to hover around 113°F. The three outdoor hot springs temperatures range between 106°F and 118°F.

The water is rich in minerals, such as sodium, potassium, chlorine, and sulfur. There are additional minerals in smaller quantities, such as calcium and fluorine, that help gives this water its therapeutic properties.

The pools are available from 9 AM to 7 PM for daytime visitors, while guests who are registered are given 24-hour access. For those who prefer to soak more naturally, the pools are clothing-optional after 9 pm, but no children are allowed.

Note: Bring your own water. Your only other option is the naturally occuring mineral water.

The resort is spread over 145 acres of land and follows sustainable and environment-friendly practices. The resort features low voltage lights, geothermally radiated pools, solar power, and recycled wood. Additionally, no VOC paints have been used on-site.
