Carson hot springs was the most relaxing experience I have ever had!! A 20 minute soak in a mineral bath to calm your body and a hot wrap to sweat out all the impurities in you skin. I had a 50 minute message which wasn't long enough. I will do it again and again!! We only stayed for the day.
My mom and I came here on a recent girl's trip to Oregon. What a great find! This place is a real throwback - I love the clawfoot soaking tubs. The hot mineral bath and wrap are so relaxing and such an awesome value. The staff is friendly and very professional. We can't wait to go back!
I live near this funky old place, and have been going there for a soak, wrap and massage several times a year for many, many years. I loved the "realness" of the place, the old tubs and as much hot mineral water as you want to use. I went recently, and while I was happy to get an appointment on the spur of the moment, I won't be going any more. First, shame on me, I didn't ask the price. It has gone way, way up. $90 midweek, plus tips pushes it to $100.00 when it used to be $60, then $75. But $90 is getting on up there with other spas in the area, which are more modern and clean.Funky is one thing, but clean is another. And it is not clean. Hair in the shower, cloth seats in the dressing room (and who sat in them naked before you?).If you are coming off a few nights in the woods without a shower, this might seem like a wonderland. But if you want a little pampering and cleanliness, this is not the place.
OK really - it is old and funky but very clean and well run. I love the experience. A HOT mineral bath - just as hot as you want it. Then a wrap in clean sheets and wool blankets - to sweat the rest out. Or go in the sauna.I hope they never change it....Did I really say that? Yes, I did. I hope NOBODY ever changes it. I cannot believe someone said it was disgusting. The tubs have "signs of wear" from the minerals but it is very clean. I LOVE IT!
We decided to stay overnight in a king jacuzzi room. The gal gave us a good rate over the phone and informed us that they do place a $250 hold on the card while you are there. When we arrived a few days later the gal at the front desk tried to charge me $60 more than what I wad quoted on the phone but quickly adjusted it. I must say the mineral spring hot tub was wonderful. We stayed in room H 208 facing the river but couldn't see it but it was great to hear. The room was very very basic but clean. The TV was old, the bed was ok and we had no telephone or internet in the room and no cell service . It is nice not to have the distractions but I couldn't even call the front desk to see what time check out was as it wasn't posted anywhere the room. We only had two towels total which wasn't enough for showering and hot tub but we used the thin robe provided. If you go I would suggest asking for a few extra towels.
I loved loved my one night stay at Carson Mineral Hot Spring. It was my gift to my friend of 18 years for her birthday. We chose to drive hwy 14 instead of busy 84. That was a wise choice, the road has beautiful scenery and good fresh air. The hotel was clean and quiet. The soak in the hot spring water was refreshing and relaxing, we bth enjoy it. Your skin will love you for it. The only thing I wish the owner can do is at least change the blackened faucets and the shower stands, too old and seems dirty. I will go there again regardless.
The mineral baths / wrap at Carson Hotsprings were amaizing! The womanwas very professional, and polite. The bath house was quiet and a wonderful place to relax.
and I like it!I've been a few times over the past 10 years. I go for one thing, to close my eyes, clear my mind & rejuventate my spirit. It's a perfect blend of disgusting & fantastic rolled into one. Today, I arrived at 9am... first come first serve mineral baths & body wraps ($20) - not another soul in sight. The attendants were very friendly. You soak in an old claw tub, & then lay in a room filled with cots cocooned in cheese cloth & a heavy blanket. I love this place! I have never eaten there, golfed or stayed the night... so that is all i've got, enjoy!
The $20 hot mineral water soak and wrap were worth the jaunt. We will be revisiting this place.We came out with a serious drug free mellow.
Carson Mineral Hot Springs is a Great place to relax and enjoy a natural mineral bath. It is by far the best value around. The place is rustic but very clean. the service is very good, however if you are expecting a high end spa environment then this is not the place for you. If you want a relaxing mineral bath at a very good price in a rustic setting then you will really enjoy this place. My wife and I have been there several times and have always had a Great relaxing experience.
