- J36ZCjulier26 contributionsLeave the Driving to ThemWe used Sweet Pea Tours for transportation to Strawberry Hot Springs. They picked up and dropped off at our VRBO right on time. It was a really good experience - just relax and not worry about the windy / snowy roads. Our driver was very pleasant. I would recommend .Visited January 2024Traveled with familyWritten January 23, 2024
- TessMoosTrabuco Canyon, California28 contributionsCool Experience!The shuttle was convenient and right on time! Our driver was informative and entertaining! The hot springs were beautiful and relaxing! Definitely go in the cold water too! It’s just takes a few tries to get all the way in and then it feels great! Trust me! Then get back in the hot springs! Great way to ease the muscles and joints after a few days of skiing!Visited January 2024Traveled with familyWritten January 30, 2024
- Linda W2 contributionsA once in a lifetime must!This is a unique all natural experience. It requires a mindset for getting a little chilly between the changing cabin and the pools, but SO worth it. Be sure to take/ wear water shoes, towel and something warm for post swim. During our time we moved between pools for the full experience. Going from the hottest to the cold ( for only 3 minutes) was actually nice… the high body heat kept me warm. There are stone steps in several places with railings to assist in entry. It still requires a good amount of stability, so I would not recommend if you have serious mobility challenges. The night we went it was cloudy until about half way through, when the clouds dispersed, and the stars were amazing. There is almost no ambient light so even shooting stars were visible. SPECTACULAR! FYI, there are no lockers, so only take what you must. Your belongings will be sitting somewhere on a rock or bench. I highly recommend this unforgettable, relaxing and truly natural experience. We rode the Sweet Pea tour shuttle… right on time, friendly and comfortable.Visited February 2024Traveled with friendsWritten February 8, 2024

First it’s so relaxing the temperature is so crazy hot warm medium cool cold you can’t ask for more! We love the beautiful mountains and snow as we relax in the water. Booking with Sweet Pea has always been our favorite they are on time and talk about everything you need to understand about the springs. Weather related they can get you there safely too!!

- suze60mbOceanside, California14 contributionsSweet Pea Tours was indeed sweet!We had a day off from skiing and this was such a great way to spend some time! The shuttle driver was right on time, and the atmosphere in the van was fun and lively. The driver pointed out interesting things along the way, and we learned a lot about the history of the area. Once at the hot springs, our driver gave us a quick tour of the site, showing us the restroom, changing room, and describing the various pools with their different degrees of heat. Our ride back was also right on schedule, and very mellow. We even saw a herd of elk along the way. Sweet Pea Tours took the hassle out of visiting Strawberry Hot Springs, and made it the best possible experience it could have been. We will be back!Visited March 2024Traveled with familyWritten March 24, 2024

Driver was comletely unsafe and wreck less on wet, icy roads. We were thrashed around in the back. One gal threw up four times, for real. The sturdy, large man who road in front seat got out on arrival and said he would NOT be in front on the way back home.
Feels like a scam that all reservations were "sold out" months in advance. And the only spots left are "allocated to our shuttle partners".. then you are forced to pay extra for a shuttle that makes you sick, stressed & in real harm's way.. Tourist trap.

I am very disappointed to give them a one star review because they canceled my reservation without notice. Kayla called me and asked to move to another time as they had a large group and wanted to add more people to the group. My friends and I couldn't make any of the time changes she suggested because we flew from different states to get there and have everything planned in advance. She was fine as we were adamant to keep our booking time. Late evening, I just received an email saying they canceled the reservation and didn't even call to inform us. Reservations are served in advance, my friend and I checked the calendar every day and booked immediately as soon as the day opened (this booking was done more than a month of the arrival date) and I'm sure our reservation was the first group because she said yes a large group wanted to come join. Be considerate of others for their time and plans, especially those who have planned ahead.

Hi- thank you for sharing your concerns. We did have a large group who booked months ago for a memorial celebration for a friend- who ended up having additional guests join. I offered you different time options, which did not work for you. I communicated that we were now unable to take your group, but that I had confirmed spots were available for your group with the other shuttle company. I shared the link with you to book and refunded your payment immediately.
We did our best to accommodate a large group and provide you an alternative option that would not affect your plans to visit the hot springs as they had availability for the exact same time and date. We hope you have a great hot springs visit!

I’m just giving the tour a 3 because of the driver. The hot springs were lovely and it was a lot of fun experimenting with the temperature gradients in each pool. The biggest problem was the driver. Although he did take a few minutes to give us a short tour and point to the different areas of the spring, , he was very adamant that we be back in the parking lot at 5 PM or we would be left behind. We were 3 separate groups and we all were very careful to be back by 4:50. Now understand that the weather was in the single digits (!), our hair was wet, and we had minimal clothing because (according to directions) there are few private changing areas. The driver was 10 min late, we were freezing, literally, and we were 30 min late arriving at our condo. It was extremely difficult, physically, to wait outside in that cold for that long. I would also recommend wearing water shoes, since the stone steps in the pools are very slippery.

Excellent experience with Sweet Pea Tours heading to Strawberry hot springs. Amir was a great driver, had lots of good stories about the local area and was right on time for dropoff and pick-up. Hot Springs were totally worth it - a great afternoon!

Sweet Pea Tours is a great way to get to Strawberry Park Natural Hot Springs when the park is sold out on Strawberry's site. We had a fantastic driver that knew the road well and got us there quick. Once you're on the road it's about 25 minutes to get there. Make sure you bring some sort of flip flops and a robe in the winter as there's a freezing cold walk from the changing hut to the pools. And maybe a red lamp if you're there at night for the walk to the pools since there are no lights on the way to it. Red light will allow your eyes to stay adjusted to the dark once you get to where you're walking. If you're there at night don't forget to look at the stars. It might be the best view of them you've ever had. All in all a fantastic experience from Sweet Pea and Strawberry Park Natural Hot Springs!

We had a wonderful time at the Hot Springs. There was heavy snow the night we went and lots of accidents in town and on the road to the springs, but our driver had no trouble getting us there.
They texted they would be delayed picking us up, but our time at the springs was not cut short.
We ended up being the only shuttle at the springs since they closed the roads to anyone except the tours. It was a magical experience.

Great customer service. Website reservation does not accept solo bookings. Called and was able to make an evening reservation after skiing. However, on the day of booking, ski resort was closed due to wind gust. Immediately called again and was able to switch night reservation to day time to take in the scenery. Driver was on time and kept in touch with cell phone. Road is rugged so best to leave the drive to the experts, especially in the snow. Pool time is just short of 2 hours which is sufficient.

We went through Sweet Pea yo go to Strawberry Park Hot Springs. The shuttle picked us up at our resort which was perfect!
Our driver, Anthony was fun to visit with and had waters and garbage bags available to use while at the hot springs. When we arrived he did a great job of informing us of which pools were what temps, where to find the bathrooms, changing rooms, etc.
I definitely recommend using Sweet Pea to experience the hot springs!
