These pools are warm and healing and full of minerals like arsenic, boron, calcium, chloride, fluoride, iron, lithium, magnesium, manganese, selenium, silica, sodium, sulphur, and zinc.
The Tower Pool is 104 degrees.

The View Pool has great views of the mountains and is 108 degrees. This is a quiet pool - only whispering is allowed, so guests can relax in the water in near silence.

There's also one other pool that is 98 degrees. Plus, there are two jacuzzi tubs also filled with the hot spring water that are kept at 104 degrees.

The pools open early in the morning and are open until after dark. You'll likely want to spend quite a bit in all of them throughout your visit or stay.
