Saratoga Hot Springs (Inlet Park)
Three natural pools near Utah Lake, reached by a city-built path from the Inlet Park parking area in Saratoga Springs. The pools reach about 109°F and have muddy bottoms. Visit Utah notes swimsuits are required, alcohol is not allowed and the springs close daily at 10 pm.
Fifth Water Hot Springs (Diamond Fork)
Several soaking pools along Fifth Water Creek in Uinta-Wasatch-Cache National Forest, beside a series of waterfalls, reached on foot from the Three Forks Trailhead on Diamond Fork Road. Visit Utah lists the soaking pools at about 100-102°F. The Forest Service warns that harmful bacteria may be present and advises not dunking your head and showering after soaking.
Homestead Crater
A geothermal spring inside a beehive-shaped limestone dome on the Homestead Resort grounds in Midway, entered through a ground-level tunnel. The water is about 90-96°F and roughly 65 feet deep, so life vests are required for everyone except certified divers. Soaks are sold in one-hour slots with about 40 minutes in the water.
Baker Hot Springs
Three small concrete tubs in Utah's West Desert northwest of Delta, fed by springs at Fumarole Butte that emerge at about 180°F. Visitors mix in cold water through PVC pipes to set the temperature, and each tub fits only a few people. It is free.
Crystal Hot Springs
A long-running pool complex in Honeyville, opened as Madsen Hot Springs in 1901, that blends a 120-134°F hot spring with a cold spring less than 50 feet away. It has three mineral hot tubs, a soaker/cave pool, a chlorinated lap pool, an Olympic pool and two water slides. Camping is no longer offered and outside food is not allowed.
Meadow Hot Springs
Travertine spring pools in a farmer's field west of Meadow, south of Fillmore, on private land the owner keeps open to the public. Visit Utah describes two pools, the deeper one around 100°F with rock shelves, and says the owner built a walking trail and fence. Posted rules require swimsuits and ban alcohol, and visitors are asked to clean up.
Mystic Hot Springs
A hillside hot springs retreat in Monroe on the old Cooper homestead, where 165°F spring water cools as it runs down to two 20-foot pools and five cast-iron tubs. Soaking is by reserved 2-hour slot shared with others booked at the same time. Overnight guests stay in a pioneer cabin, converted buses, tent sites or RV sites.
Belmont Hot Springs RV Park
An RV park near Garland in Box Elder County built around two natural hot spring lakes, listed at 97°F and 104°F and also known as Udy Hot Springs. A hot springs access pass is sold to non-campers, and scuba diving is offered October through May by reservation. Pets are welcome in the park but not in the springs.
