The way to property is out of nowhere. But property is conveniently located next to hot springs. Kids enjoyed it. Clean cabin . Pool was nice and warm. You might not be able to upgrade to rooms easily. So book it accordingly. Cabins are far from main office.

Mt. Princeton Hot Springs is a beautiful and relaxing spot with a great mix of soaking options, from the natural creek-side pools to the main and newer pools, all set against stunning mountain views. The facilities are clean and well maintained, staff are friendly, and the variety of temperatures makes it easy to find a comfortable soak.

We stayed creekside. The room was clean, spacious and new. It well exceeded our expectations. The staff were lovely - very accommodating. It was excellent value with the pool entry included (about $40 each), towel ($10) and locker ($7). For a family of five, that alone is over $500 for the two days of swimming.
