- Book Early. Make reservations for your 2-1/2-hour soaking window well in advance of your arrival. Spring break is a popular time at Iron Mountain Hot Springs so plan on booking early.
- Pool Rules. We don’t allow outside food or beverages on the premises, but please bring an empty water bottle that you can refill with ice-cold water at our hydration stations.
- Dressing Room Smarts. Locker rooms can get busy, especially at soaking window transition times. Maximize your time in the water by coming pool ready; at departure time, extend pool time by opting to shower back at your hotel.
- Imbibe Responsibly. Spring break is a time to celebrate and let loose. Adult beverages—beer, wine and cocktails—are available in the Sopris Café. Remember though that our hot springs lower your tolerance for alcohol, so be smart and limit yourself to a couple of drinks per visit and supplement by downing plenty of water as well.
