About these waters

Tucked off Highway 12 southwest of Missoula, this mountain lodge offers indoor and outdoor mineral pools around 102–105°F, plus cabins, tent and RV sites, and a rustic restaurant and bar for campers. The secluded, forested setting draws trail riders, snowmobilers, and day soakers, with walk-in admission and no reservation needed for the pools. Locker rooms and showers round out a laid-back, family-friendly stop in the Bitterroot foothills.

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.

Lolo Hot Springs: FAQs

Do I need to book Lolo Hot Springs 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 Lolo Hot Springs?

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 Lolo Hot Springs?

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.
