Joyful Journey Hot Springs Spa

Description

Joyful Journey Hot Springs Spa is a serene retreat nestled in the remote San Luis Valley of Colorado, framed by the towering Sangre de Cristo Mountains. Once a popular early‑20th‑century health resort, this revitalized sanctuary blends rustic charm with modern comfort. The resort features a variety of lodging options—inviting hotel rooms, cozy yurts, tipis, RV hookups, and camping areas—set around natural travertine hot springs that bubble up at temperatures from 120–145 °F, then cooled to 98–108 °F for the perfect soak.

Immersed in nature’s healing embrace, guests are treated to three tiled outdoor pools offering panoramic valley views and mineral‑rich waters high in lithium, boron, calcium, and magnesium—elements believed to uplift mood and ease tension . The property also includes a dry sauna, indoor private tubs, a spa therapy center offering massages and facials, a communal lodge, a meditation labyrinth, and a greenhouse. Its quiet, spiritual atmosphere makes it ideal for rest, reflection, and connection with the land.
