The Haunted Hot Springs Resort In Montana That Will Delight You In Every Way

Boulder Hot Springs in Montana offers a unique blend of relaxation, historic charm, and paranormal intrigue.

All it takes is one look at the Boulder Hot Springs property in Montana to know that it's a special place. Once a hot spot for celebrities, ranchers, and even former presidents, it's now a timeless treasure with a spot on the National Register of Historic Places. And not only are these hot springs in Montana absolutely delightful, but they also come with their own ghost! And don't worry, she's not unfriendly.

Boulder Hot Springs sits in the foothills of the Elkhorn Mountains on the outskirts of the small town of Boulder.

The first building was constructed in 1863 by a prospector named James E. Riley, who built a saloon and bathhouse catering to local miners and ranchers.

The resort has changed hands quite a few times over the years, but each owner has treated it well.

The property received a complete renovation in 1910. Although everything is kept up-to-date, you'll still find plenty of gorgeous antique furnishings in the rooms.

These days, these Montana hot springs are as popular as ever, and it's an amazing place to come and relax.

With an outdoor pool, an indoor plunge, steam rooms, and spa services available, you won't want to leave.

If rumors are true, there was once a resident here who didn't want to leave, either... ever.

Boulder Hot Springs is said to be haunted by a ghost named Simone, who once worked at the resort as a prostitute.

It is said that Simone was murdered in the old office area of the resort.

She has been spotted in the halls and from several third-story windows. Guests have also reported an unexplained perfume aroma with no apparent source. There's even a suite named after Simone, although Simone's spirit doesn't seem to spend much time there (so don't hesitate to book it).

There have been other reports of paranormal activity at Boulder Hot Springs, but Simone tends to be the most prominent spirit.

Her spirit makes this place one of the most haunted places in Montana. But if you don't see any ghosts while you're there, don't get discouraged... this place is amazing, even when there are no spirits in sight.
