Saratoga Hobo Hot Springs

Awesome place! Nice hot springs. Free and open to the public 24/7. Nice shower / bathroom facility. There are two concrete pools, lower one is quite hot while the upper is a bit cooler.

The best part about these hot springs is it's free and open to the public!! The facilities are basic. There are changing rooms with showers and bathrooms, lockers, and drinking fountains. The larger pool is the hot pool with a small even hotter pool called the "hot pot" attached near the entrance. The smaller side pool is the cooler pool. We've found that the temperature can vary pretty significantly depending on the day you go. We come about once a month and we've noticed differences in the temperatures from the hot pool being pleasantly hot to uncomfortably scalding hot and the cooler pool being bathwater warm to a little chilly. In the summer there are some nice warm spots on the river if you want a bit more privacy and the park across the river is cute with a historic bathroom building and tables for a picnic.

Water was extra hot this visit. Still was able to get in for short periods. Always nice to visit. The water fountains didn't work (I assume the city shut them down for winter). Bring your own bottled water, the spring will dehydtate you fast.

Three hot pools of various temperatures. I was told the middle pool was 104 degrees and the hotter one was 110. The cooler pool was somewhere in the upper 90s. Nice bathrooms and dressing areas. Steps very slippery getting into pools and the water had lots of floating vegetation. It was free to use with locked recepticles for donations.

Very natural sand bottom pool. They have three pools to try. They have the lobster pool which will burn your hairs off and turn you in a lobster it’s so hot! 🦐 then they have the pool that is right next to the lobster pot and that was crystal clear and about 112-114 today. One of the locals said it changes. Then on the other side of the wall was the cooler pool. Very all natural. The locker rooms were very clean for it being on a donation basis. Well worth the 3 hour trip. Also by the river is a small man made rock pool that is in between the two temps. You have to go over the small bridge and it will be on your left.
