So. If you went to Mammoth Springs in Yellowstone and got it in your head you really wanted a hot springs bathing experience, this is your closest option. Is it your best option? Questionable. Here's the skinny; it's a 'budget resort'. Yes, it's location is stunning; located in a valley with stunning views of the mountains and river. But the resort is showing its age a bit. There are two tubs, one hot water, one is cold. And a heated pool they are both located within. The hot tub wasn't nearly as hot as I had been hoping. And the waters really dried out our skin, which makes me wonder where the water really comes from and how/if it's treated. I didn't get that good lithium/mineral soak experience I've had at other natural hot springs. That being said, it's very affordable! The grounds are nicely manicured, and there's an attached little cafe. There's a discount offered at the hot springs if you stay within the campground, which we did. Tight campsites, but it was still nice by the river. Camp tip; skip doing laundry there. See my other review for more on that.

This was a great stop just outside Gardiner after our Yellowstone visit. I can't speak to the rooms as we only visited the hot springs. Upon parking, the premises surrounded by a wall looked really basic. But after we paid the reasonable entrance fee and entered, we were thrilled to see a beautiful pool surrounded by a grassy area with plenty of shade and seating, and beyond it mountain ridges that take your breath away. It was great fun to plunge into the cold pool followed by the hot tub. The main pool is warm (think bath water). Do note that this place is family-friendly, so there will likely be kids during the school holidays. I know mine got a bit rambuctious. I looked at three hot springs options (+ Bozeman Hot Springs and Chico) and am glad we chose this one.

This has been our absolute favorite hot springs getaway for almost 3 years due to location, beautiful scenery and up until yesterday, the fact that you could pay for a soak and be able to return for no charge within 24 hrs... yesterday after camping on site, we returned to soak in the morning and were told that we had to pay. The lady at the desk argued with me that the 24 hr policy has never been a thing and she didn't know who was saying that! Lady, literally you said that the last 20 times we have been! We paid for another day, even though we were only able to soak the night before for an hour once we arrived. Not sure what has happened but this has a HUGE reason for our continued return. We love all of the new improvements they have made over the years but this is not one of them. Also, HUGE shout out to the sweet man that was working the pool grounds as he searched for the corn hole bags for us for an hour!! Love him!!

We didn’t stay here but did a budget friendly day trip to Mammoth Hot Springs in Yellowstone. Just a quick drive from there. There are not hot springs that you can enjoy in the park, so this was next best thing for us. They had a hot spring and a cold tub to help you cool down. Kids had a blast!

We stayed at the camp ground everything was great went over to the pools 2 times decent price for our family of 5. Beautiful views. Only complaint was on the second day showers at the pool were ice cold. And bathroom could use attention but day one was fantastic.
