Mystic Hot Springs is a
very unique and original location. I would
like to start this article by mentioning the unbelievable
people who own/work at Mystic Hot Springs. We truly felt at
home, and welcome from the minute we walked through the door.
Mike and Victoria made us feel... as if to use the cliche' "what
is theirs is mine". This was before we were turned loose on the
property to wander at our own free will.
The hot pools were spectacular. The mineral deposits from the
water have slowly over time built up beautiful rock formations, that
are creating a cascade of water to the large pools, tubs and
ponds. The water at the source is a whooping 168
degree's, so needless to mention it must travel through quite an
extensive cooling down process. The trails to the source are
open for visitors to view, but do not attempt to touch the water at
the source for obvious reasons.

Mystic Hot Springs offers two large pools, and five singular
bathtubs for soaking. The original pool is quit large, and set
up for your basic sit and soak in a social setting. The second
pool is deep enough to stand in and cover your shoulders. The
five singular bathtubs are set up in two different groups, three in
one group, and two in the other. The tubs are your basic
standard size tub, comfortable enough for one soaker. The
group of two tubs is closest to the water source, which of course
would be perfect for those who like it hot. These two tubs
site on a hill and offer a beautiful view of the fish ponds below,
and the quite little valley of Monroe Utah. The group of three
tubs are just down the hill from the first two tubs, so they still
offer a beautiful view, and are on the warmer side.

Speaking of the fish ponds, there are six large ponds with tropical
fish who are thriving in Utah's diverse climate due to the run off
from the springs that heats the ponds to a comfortable 75 degrees
year round. They feed the fish daily at 4:00 PM. The
kids and adults are welcome to join in, and its the best time to
view the fish. If you are interested in spending a few days at
Mystic Hot Springs, you could spend it in their 32 site RV park with
full hook ups and hot showers and clean bathrooms, or bring your
tent. There are several lawns for tent camping in a park-like
setting. All sites are close to clean rest rooms and hot
showers. If you prefer quite and primitive setting, Mystic Hot
Springs has over 100 acres of land that is suitable for backpack
camping. Just ask Mike or Victoria where the best sites are
and what's available.
Cabins rentals are also available, these rustic cabins have been
collected from all over the state by Mike. Some of these
cabins date back to the late 1800's. These cabins have been refurbished
and made available to you. The cabins have been placed
throughout the Mystic Hot Springs property, giving each location its
own unique setting.
