About these waters
Once the first destination resort east of the Cascades, Kah-Nee-Ta closed in 2018 and returned in August 2024 after a full rebuild on the Warm Springs Reservation. Guests now soak in roughly 30 mineral pools — a lazy river, activity pool, wellness pools reaching 110°F, and cold plunges — plus mini golf, pickleball, hiking trails, and river tubing. Stays range from remodeled motel rooms to authentic tribal teepees and a 70-site RV park.

Good to know
- Listing researched October 2026 — prices and hours change, always confirm with the spring before visiting.
- Hydrate between soaks and limit hot soaks to 15–20 minutes — mineral water dehydrates fast.
- Wild springs run on the honor system: pack out everything, leave the pool cleaner than you found it.

Kah-Nee-Ta Hot Springs Resort: FAQs
Do I need to book Kah-Nee-Ta Hot Springs Resort in advance?
For day-use admission, popular resorts sell out on weekends — if the official site offers reservations, book ahead. Weekday visits are usually easier as walk-ins.
Are kids welcome at Kah-Nee-Ta Hot Springs Resort?
Many developed springs welcome families, but age rules, family hours, and adults-only pools vary by property. Check the official site for the current policy before visiting with children.
How long should I soak at Kah-Nee-Ta Hot Springs Resort?
Start with 15–20 minutes, then cool off and hydrate before going back in. Hot mineral water dehydrates you faster than you expect — drink water between soaks and don't push through dizziness.
