Givens Hot Springs provides an opportunity to enjoy the therapeutic benefits of a natural hot spring mineral soak. According to visitor feedback, the soaking pool is clean, and the absence of a roof enhances the experience. The current cost to soak is $12, which many find worthwhile.

The environment at Givens Hot Springs is family-friendly, with a small park located out back and picnic tables available for visitors to use. This makes it a potential destination for a day out with children.

While the water itself is described as "amazing," some visitors have provided feedback on certain aspects of the facilities. One guest mentioned a desire for seating along the interior of the pool, particularly in the deeper end, to allow for more relaxed soaking away from the crowded shallow areas where children often play. They also suggested the possibility of dedicated adult-only soaking times for a quieter experience and expressed interest in trying an evening or mid-week soak, hoping for a calmer atmosphere.

Another reviewer noted that while the facility is generally very clean, the dressing rooms have a noticeable odor. Additionally, they relayed their husband's negative experience with the men's bathroom stalls, citing issues with cleanliness. Despite these points, the reviewer still described having a great time on a Saturday, noting that it was not overly crowded.

In summary, Givens Hot Springs offers a clean and beneficial hot spring mineral soak in a family-friendly environment with a small park and picnic tables. While the water quality is highly praised, potential visitors should be aware of feedback regarding limited seating in the pool and reported cleanliness issues in the restrooms. The experience may vary depending on the time of visit, with some suggesting that evenings or mid-week might be less crowded. Despite some noted drawbacks, the hot springs remains a place many intend to revisit for its therapeutic benefits.

Definitely worth the $12 to soak. It was clean, and I like that there is no roof anymore. I wish there was seating lining the interior of the pool — something to sit and relax on, especially in the deep end. Everyone was crowding the shallow end and wading pool, where there are tons of little kids playing around. I’d also be super interested in a dedicated time for adults only soaking so that it can be a much more quiet and serene soaking experience. I’d like to try an evening or mid-week soak to see if it is a calmer experience. Still, I’ll go back for the benefits of a hot spring mineral soak from time to time. Maybe I’ll bring a noodle to sit on next time, too.

The water is amazing. Great place to bring the kids. There is a small park out back and picnic tables. Very clean but the dressing rooms have a smell not super bad but noticeable. My husband says if you’re a man be prepared to be grossed out by the men’s bathroom stalls poop on the walls of the stalls and the toilet didn’t seem to flush he stated. Other wise a great time went on a Saturday and it wasn’t overly crowded.

Just went to it after reopened has an open top now. They're not fully finished but the progress is really nice. The people are nice. Definitely affordable. Stayed there last night. Has fire pits. But probably need to bring trash bags to take the trash out. Also maybe something to do about going to the bathroom. Other than that, pretty nice and close to map rock/petroglyphs archeology site.

I am glad this business bounce back after the roof collapsed, but unfortunately we did not have a good experience. When we visited and paid 36 dollars for our family of four, we ended up leaving after 30 minutes. The pool had so many people there was no ability to swim. The only place to be without touching other people was in the 8 foot section of the pool, which didn’t work for our small children. To top it off, the pool was dirty. There was a lot of hair that we kept pulling off us and other pieces of trash floating in the pool. I’m sure this could be a nice place on a day when it isn’t so busy, but we felt like we wasted our time and money.

Fun and Nasty! This place could be awesome with some TLC. My mother in law came with us and she didn’t have a swimsuit so we rented her one for $2. They have life jackets for rent they were $4 each, but they are old and wet. You can buy snacks and drinks at the front counter. Kids 2 years old are free and over are $5. Adults were $10 each and there’s a $5 senior discount. There’s a kids pool connected to the main pool that was good for our 2 year old daughter. My 7 year old son liked jumping in the deep end (I think it’s about 9ft deep at the deepest. They have changing rooms for men and women with showers and toilets but both of the toilets in the men’s bathroom were not working. Be careful walking around the pool it’s super slick. I believe they use chlorine in the pool because I saw a container in the maintenance room but not too much because there was no chlorine smell. We spent 1 hr there and it was definitely fun and nasty!
