We went for a well needed rest. The employee's are wonderful people. The hot springs are amazing. We were able to book a massage with Debbie, what a totally difference in body, mind and spirit. More

We have been going to Cottonwood for about 6 years now. Our first trip we stayed in a private cabin. It was quaint and private. The private little pool had to be tempered with cool water because it was too hot. Our subsequent trips we have stayed in the main logde in a king room. Over the last year they... More

this is a great place to soak. It looks a bit run-down and I doubt I'd ever stay in the rooms (no food nearby, looks dumpy). However, if you want to unwind this is the place! First of all - if you are shy and don't like to change in front of people, or flash other people of the other... More

I have never been so miss treated in my life. Upon arrival myself, fiance, and two friends (all around 30 years of age and very clean cut) were greeted by a man behind the counter looking at us up and down and promptly leaving the front desk. We waited for approx 5 min for him to come back and once... More

I've visited Cottonwood Hot Springs off and on for over 20 years, and I have to say that the current owners have done a really nice job in sprucing the place up without totally yuppifying it - if ya' know what I mean. There are several pools which are graduated in temperature from roughly 97 degress up to about 104,... More

I visited Cottonwood Hot Springs for the second time for a weekend with my 7 friends. The hot springs pools are great (they could use a little lighting at night to avoid stubbin your toes and knees - but that might detract from the beautiful night sky) - 5 pools, different temperatures. A bit rustic, but that is the charm.... More

I went for a massage and soak in the hot springs. With the exception of the hot springs pools, the property seems to suffer from benign neglect. A good cleaning and de-cluttering would go a long way to make this a nice place. I wouldn't call the front desk folks friendly. I was looked at with either no interest or... More
