Facility
The 70’x35’ family pool is filled with 100,000 gallons of fresh water and features a gently sloped ramp, making it accessible by wheelchair. The pool is geothermally heated to 90º Fahrenheit. A 18’x8’ whirlpool spa, which is just over 100°F, sits above the pool.
There are sixteen small hot springs pools heated between 99 to 108°F. Each of the pools is connected via heated walkway, perfect for winter. These geothermal water has a complete changeover every two hours. A warm creek returns the cleaned water to the Colorado River.
All offer outstanding views, ranging from Iron Mountain, Red Mountain, the Flat Tops and Mount Sopris. There’s a quiet zone that surrounds the soaking pools, ensuring everyone gets the relaxation they deserve. The iron-rich thermal water contains more than 14 different minerals.
The lodge-style bathhouse features a retail store, locker room and restaurant. The Sopris Café serves breakfast items, sandwiches, pizza, desserts, soft-serve ice cream, frozen yogurt, smoothies and alcohol.
Across the way is the Glenwood Caverns Adventure Park.
