Valley View Hot Springs shared by @afar says: ""Valley View Hot Springs Lives Up to Its Name It's a fairly long drive (175 miles) southwest of Denver, but once you are sitting in a warm natural pool, looking out over the San Luis Valley, the miles will melt away. Choose from numerous options to stay, from a tent spot to a cabin or basic motel-style room with shared kitchens. The springs are strung up a hill, with the one at the top being the hottest, and a little community pool and sauna built around the bottom pool. Valley View is clothing optional and open all year round, managed by a unique land trust arrangement."" on Postcard
