Hot Springs
Miles away from nowhere, Willow Creek Hot Springs features a single pool out in the middle of southeast Oregon’s high desert region. An all-season gravel/dirt road will get you most of the way there, but the last bit is on soft dirt, which is impassible during rain. Choose your season wisely.
The single soaking pool at Willow Creek Hot Springs is a rare high desert treat. Deep, wide, almost always a near perfect 102 degrees and unimproved save for the hot/cold water mortar dam. Other nearby hot springs include Alvord, Borax Lake, Mickey and Bog in Nevada. Closest gas (and unreal milkshakes) is in Fields, Oregon.

Be careful. Pay attention to posted signs and always test the waters before you get in. Some hot springs can get up to boiling temperatures. Be sure to drink plenty of water to combat the dehydrating effect of the spring.
Be respectful of other soakers and the hot spring. Don't hog the pool. Camp at least 200 yards away and keep fires in designated areas. Keep your pets out of the water and never pee in thermal feature. Glass bottles should never go near a hot spring.
