The BEST Idaho Hot Springs

View Video

I went on a little road trip last week to find the best of the best hot springs in Idaho, beginning in Boise. The objective was simple: Soak is as many beautiful places as possible and find the best ones. It was a smashing success. Here’s where we went: Idaho City Hot Springs: A nice big pool, private jacuzzis, and even a steam bath. This one isn’t a natural one and you do have to pay to use it but it’s a nice stop between Boise and Stanley. Kirkham Hot Springs: A popular one in Idaho, it’s pretty nice in the winter months when there are fewer people around. This hot spring features waterfalls and a bunch of different pools and best of all, it’s nice and HOT. Mountain Village Resort Hot Springs: The first stop in Stanley, Mountain Village has its own little barn hot spring that you can use when you stay at the hotel. Boat/Boater Box hot springs: This little tub on the river is adorable and a nice little place to soak. Sunbeam hot springs: My personal favorite, this hot spring is so nice and hot and it’s also the only one I had all to myself! It’s just 10 minutes down the road from Boater box. Goldbug Hot Spring: Idaho’s most famous but for good reason. This one requires a 2-mile hike in and you get rewarded with hot springs of various temperatures and an incredible view.
