Hot Springs In Oregon

Are there any other hot springs in Oregon?

There are several hot springs in Oregon. Of all the natural hot springs in Oregon, though, one spot you don’t want to miss is Umpqua Hot Spring. Tucked away in the Umpqua National Forest, it’s the perfect place for a picturesque soak year-round. The hot spring features a total of three cascading soaking pools – each of which increases in temperature as you make your way up from the nearby Umpqua River. It should be noted, though, that clothing is optional at Umpqua Hot Spring, which is something to keep in mind if travelling with kids. Also, the trail to the hot spring is short (just ¼ mile); however, it’s rather steep. Lastly, the hot spring occasionally closes due to weather conditions, so make sure to check the USDA website prior to visiting.

What are some great winter getaways in Oregon?

When it comes to winter getaways in Oregon, the options are plentiful. A great place to enjoy the season – and all its perks – is La Pine State Park. Brimming with perks, it offers a little bit of everything. Outdoor enthusiasts and adrenaline junkies will enjoy the park’s numerous opportunities for snowshoeing and cross-country skiing. And for those craving some R&R, the park’s cozy cabins won’t disappoint. For more info, click here.

Is there a hot springs resort in Oregon?

Some hot springs in Oregon are out in the middle of nowhere. Others are the centerpiece of resorts. If you’re seeking the latter, you’ll love The Lodge at Hot Lake Springs in La Grande. The resort is centered around one of the largest hot springs in the northwest. To put its size into perspective, it pumps 2,000,000 gallons of 186-degree water 24 hours a day! All in all, there are five lakeside soaking pools, but the resort’s amenities don’t end there. The resort also includes several pubs and restaurants and a 60-seat movie theater.
