Dakota Hot Springs Aka The Well

great hospitality Dave treated us very nice and was the BEST!!! much better than desert reef, water was so hot and it's a party they allow you to drink and don't yell at you for talking. everyone should come here!!!!

The sign out front can be hard to find, but it is easy to get to once you see it. Drive to the back and you'll find the campgrounds and the main building. You go in and watch a short video (leave your phone in the car), then can enter. Make sure you set up online reservations beforehand (just basic info, no charge). The person at the front desk was friendly and it was inexpensive to enter. We brought our own towels, but should have brought robes as well since it was so windy.We went on a Tuesday (swimsuits required) for a short time and it worked out well. There were maybe 10 people total there, mostly older generations. The facilities are well-used and I think they would really leave a great impression if they rennovated or just made some minor updates. There's a well-head in the center of the pool and another spout on one end along with a hot-tub of sorts near the center. We didn't get to check out the other spout or the hot-tub as they were occupied the entire time, but the main spout was accessible and nobody hogged it for too long. The pool was warm (hot near the spout), comfortable, and relaxing. There was plenty of seating as well as two of those clear outdoor domes and tables. You can bring in food and drinks (no glass). With the campground attached it looked like you could just walk back and forth between the two, which would be interesting. If you're just looking to see what a hot spring is all about, like we were, I recommend it due to the price, ease of access, and laid-back environment. Think of it as a pool-sized hot tub. If you're looking for an isolated tub and full spa experience, this is not the place for you.

I have been to this hot springs many times in the past forty years. It has a rustic feel to it so not to be commercialized. I'd rather it stay rustic. There is not much shade so prepare wisely. Bring sun screen, a hat, plenty of water and healthy food. Enjoy your stay!

This is a no frills hot spring pool. There are no amenities and no food. But it's clean and the water is hot and relaxing.

Great hot springs. Cool, casual environment. Affordable rates. Glad that they have re-opened after the pandemic!

This place was great! You do have to reserve online and there are rules in place because it's clothing optional, but nothing rediculous. We were passing through on a road trip and decided to stop. I'm glad we did, It was very therapeutic.

What a dump! Algae chunks floating through the hot springs, not clean at all. If you complain they ban you, the county won't inspect this place even with numerous complaints. Weird people and things you "can't unsee". Don't waste your money and you might catch something from this place, avoid at all costs.

Absolutely great stay, camped in their travel trailers.Very clean an accommodations n the folks were enjoyable! Will be back .

I really enjoyed this hot springs spa. It is simple yet everything you need for an enjoyable experience. The checkin process went smoothly, the front desk was friendly and accommodating, and online reservations are required. There was a fountain/waterfall feature in the pool and a hotter tub in the middle that was very relaxing. I can't wait to come back and explore the other hot springs in Colorado.

The lady running it is the rudest person I have ever met. she had a horrible attitude while checking in so bad we walked out and will never return! DONT GO THERE!!
