Joyful Journey Hot Springs – Moffat

Formerly known as the Mineral Hot Springs, Joyful Journey makes a great stop while passing through central Colorado. It’s located in a beautiful part of the San Luis Valley, about 30 miles south of Salida in Moffat, Colo.

The views of the Sangre de Cristo Mountain Range east of the hot springs are remarkable. Year-round you can soak in a number of hot springs pools at Joyful Journey. They also have lodging on-site, ranging from motel rooms to furnished and heated yurts.

Mineral Hot Spring Pools

There are three pools of varying sizes and temperatures filled with hot mineral water. Temperatures range from 98° to 108° F. All of the pools are gravity fed with artesian water. The mineral water comes from deep within the earth and reaches the ground at 120 – 140° F.

Guests can choose between soaking in the cool pool, the medium pool also called the tower pool, or the view pool, which are 98° F, 104° F, and 108° F. There are also two jacuzzis on-site as well as private indoor soaking pools that can be rented for 90 minutes.

The natural mineral water that flows from Joyful Journey Hot Springs is some of the clearest and hottest in the state. Minerals in the water include boron, calcium, lithium, magnesium, and more naturally occurring minerals that benefit the body. There are changing rooms with lockers, toilets, and showers. Towel, robe, and bathing suit rentals are also available.

“Great Place to Relax and Refresh”

I'm not sure why this campground has so few stars. The sites were just what they claimed to be - electric only. The hot springs were clean and the atmosphere was so relaxed. The staff was extremely We camped at Joyful Journey Hot Springs Spa in a Travel Trailer.

Worst stay in years. Arrived and was told I had no reservation. I definitely made one. Then I was told to reserve dinner. I did. But, when I went to eat, 15 mins early, I was told all the food was We camped at Joyful Journey Hot Springs Spa in a Cabin.
