The Best Hot Springs in America for a Scenic Soak

Stateside Hot Springs

Soak in the View at These Geo-Thermal Hot Spots

Sure, Iceland's Blue Lagoon may get all the glory on Instagram—but why hop across the pond when you can get your spa-fix stateside? From soothing soaking pools in Fairbanks, Alaska to steaming waterfalls in Lowman, Idaho, these all-American hot springs are just what we need to thaw into Spring.

Fifth Water Hot Springs - Diamond Fork, Utah

Diamond Fork, Utah

Three dreamy waterfalls accompany the soaking pools at Utah’s Fifth Water Hot Springs. Search out the share-worthy second waterfall on this 5.3-mile roundtrip hike, with multiple cascading tiers and closeby steaming streams to pause and take in the forested scenery.

Dunton Hot Springs

Dolores, Colorado

Perched at an elevation of 8,600 feet in Colorado's San Juan Mountains, this all-inclusive resort in the old mining town of Dunton gives you access to five natural hot springs—each ranging in temperature from 85 degrees to a steamy 106 degrees Fahrenheit. The romance of this retreat lies in its seclusion, surrounded by fervent green mountains, ages-old pine trees and some of the best hiking trails from May to October.

Travertine Hot Springs

Bridgeport, California

Become one with nature at California’s Travertine Hot Springs, nestled in the Sierra Nevada mountains—the site is free of charge and clothing optional. Its accessible location, just south of Bridgeport, means this is a popular stop for locals and traveling campers alike—and its picturesque blue pools make for a brag on any Instagram page.

@shaniredlich

Breitenbush Hot Springs

Detroit, Oregon

The holistic retreat set up around these natural springs aims to help people “renew and evolve in ways they never imagined.” And with 20 miles of hiking trails, yoga and meditation programs, and a vegetarian buffet, we have no doubt that a soak and stay at this Willamette Valley sanctuary will do just that.

Riverbend Hot Springs

Truth or Consequences, New Mexico

Set on the banks of the Rio Grande River, these mineral-rich waters were once considered sacred by the Apache and Mimbres tribes of southern New Mexico. Now, you can experience the springs’ same calming benefits with views of Turtleback Mountain or a starry sky to set the mood—soak by the hour or overnight for a full-day dip.

@taryn.sladeck

Chena Hot Springs

Fairbanks, Alaska

While winters at Chena Hot Springs can mean a dancing Aurora Borealis overhead, summertime offers everything from adventure (dog cart rides, guided ATV tours) to spa-level comforts (therapeutic massages, 90-degree soaks in the natural pools). Whichever you choose, be sure to stop by the year-round ice museum complete with ice bar and frozen sculptures.

Kirkham Hot Springs

Lowman, Idaho

These geothermal pools on the South Fork of the Payette River feel just rustic enough. Walk down the small wooden staircase to hot spots of varying temps, and be ready to say hello to fellow adventurers enjoying this stop off the Ponderosa Pine Scenic Byway. Outdoors lovers can set up their tent at the nearby campground, open from May 24 to September 5.

Sometimes, over-the-top trips look like five-star hotels and private jets. Other times, it looks more like this: taking in the stars while on a guided horseback trek across Mongolia’s wild steppes, deserts, and mountains with pelorusx. What’s more your speed?

California’s Highway 1 is back in business after being closed through Big Sur for nearly two years — here’s what you can’t miss along the PCH:

🌊 Carmel-by-the-Sea: Stay in town at laplayaca or laubergecarmel, which offer easy access to shops, tasting rooms, and great restaurants. If you’re in the mood to golf, book a night at the historic Lodge at Pebble Beach.

🌊 Big Sur: Hit the trails at Point Lobos on your way out of Carmel, then soak up the iconic drive as you head to ventanabigsur or postranchinn.

🌊 Cambria & San Luis Obispo: Book a tour at the iconic Hearst Castle as you make your way out of Big Sur. Then, stay in charming Cambria at the whitewatercambria (we recommend getting up early, grabbing a coffee, and heading to Moonstone Beach to watch the surfers catch waves). Or, make your way just a little further south for a night in SLO, named one of the happiest cities in California.

🌊 Santa Ynez Valley & Santa Barbara: Cut inland for a day or two of wine tasting in Santa Ynez Valley (stay at sanysidroranch or matteistavernauberge), or head directly into Santa Barbara, where you can hop between tasting rooms on the Urban Wine Trail, soak up the beautiful beaches, and take in the Spanish-style architecture.

🌊 Malibu & Santa Monica: Many of Malibu’s trails, beaches, and hotels are open a year after the devastating Palisades Fire. Spend the night at one of them — you can’t go wrong with thesurfridermalibu or noburyokanmalibu), or make your way into Santa Monica.

🌊 Laguna Beach: Soak up the art scene and lounge by pristine beaches with a stay at casalomabeachhotel, montagelaguna or the new lepetitpali.

🌊 San Diego: For your last stop, spend a few days brewery hopping, touring the museums at Balboa Park, and wandering the city’s diverse neighborhoods. pendrysandiego and delcoronado are both great places to stay.

It’s not too late to book that spring getaway. Here’s where we’d head if we were you. ✈️

Naioshima, Japan: Catch cherry blossoms, take in the Murakamis, and check out the newly opened Naoshima New Museum of Art before the crowds descend on Japan’s art islands.

Panama: Skip the crowds of classic spring break beach destinations and head to Panama for toes-in-the-sand luxury.

Uluru, Australia: With the Australian summer cooling down, March through May is an ideal time to head into the outback to Uluru. Need even more incentive? The season will see new walking trips between Kata Tjuta and Uluru debut, as well as luxe new suites onboard the Ghan.

Lanai, Hawaii: Hawaii isn’t exactly under-the-radar, but the quieter island of Lanai is. Check into the fslanai in mid-March to catch an intimate, ocean-front Brandi Carlile concert just for resort guests.

Trečín, Slovakia: One of the two 2026 European capitals of culture, Trečin is off the beaten path for now, but won’t be for long. May is the end of the shoulder season, making it an ideal time to hit the charming city.

California’s Highway 1 is back in business after being closed through Big Sur for nearly two years — here’s what you can’t miss along the PCH:

🌊 Carmel-by-the-Sea: Stay in town at laplayaca or laubergecarmel, which offer easy access to shops, tasting rooms, and great restaurants. If you’re in the mood to golf, book a night at the historic Lodge at Pebble Beach.

🌊 Big Sur: Hit the trails at Point Lobos on your way out of Carmel, then soak up the iconic drive as you head to ventanabigsur or postranchinn.

🌊 Cambria & San Luis Obispo: Book a tour at the iconic Hearst Castle as you make your way out of Big Sur. Then, stay in charming Cambria at the whitewatercambria (we recommend getting up early, grabbing a coffee, and heading to Moonstone Beach to watch the surfers catch waves). Or, make your way just a little further south for a night in SLO, named one of the happiest cities in California.

🌊 Santa Ynez Valley & Santa Barbara: Cut inland for a day or two of wine tasting in Santa Ynez Valley (stay at sanysidroranch or matteistavernauberge), or head directly into Santa Barbara, where you can hop between tasting rooms on the Urban Wine Trail, soak up the beautiful beaches, and take in the Spanish-style architecture.

🌊 Malibu & Santa Monica: Many of Malibu’s trails, beaches, and hotels are open a year after the devastating Palisades Fire. Spend the night at one of them — you can’t go wrong with thesurfridermalibu or noburyokanmalibu), or make your way into Santa Monica.

🌊 Laguna Beach: Soak up the art scene and lounge by pristine beaches with a stay at casalomabeachhotel, montagelaguna or the new lepetitpali.

🌊 San Diego: For your last stop, spend a few days brewery hopping, touring the museums at Balboa Park, and wandering the city’s diverse neighborhoods. pendrysandiego and delcoronado are both great places to stay.
