Lava Hot Springs
The World-Famous Lava Hot Mineral Springs Bubbling out of natural underground springs, the hot water is laden with Minerals, but has no sulfur and therefore no bad odor.  Over 3 million gallons a day course through the springs and are diverted into the Portneuf River keeping the springs ever changing and clean. The spring's temperatures range from approximately 102F to 110F degrees. On cold winter nights, when the steam of the hot springs reduces visibility to a few feet, people of all ages talk and play in perceived anonymity.
Olympic Swim Complex & Waterslides Our 25 yard swimming pool has been enclosed and is open no matter what the weather!
Our indoor pool has 3 diving boards and 6 swimming lanes. The new roof will allow us to stay open year round!
