Cody is a loser. Probably a pretentious local. Place is amazing. Hike it’s worth it. Water was plenty warm. Camping sites are good, some are questionable, and like sleeping on concrete but nothing the hot springs won’t fix. 10/10

This is amazing for a completely natural hot spring. People reviews on here suck , sorry its nature and things try to live? Water was great after long hike.
