If you’ve ever dreamed of slipping into a warm, steamy pool surrounded by moss-covered trees and snow-capped peaks, you’re going to love the hot springs in Washington State. I’ve found these hidden gems perfect for escaping the noise and getting back to nature—and I think you’ll feel the same once you’re there.
Highlights I Think You’ll Love:
- I hiked into Olympic Hot Springs once and found myself soaking beside a quiet river deep in Olympic National Park. If you want peace and solitude, this is your spot.
- For a bit more comfort, I often recommend Sol Duc Hot Springs Resort. You’ll enjoy the historic lodge feel, plus multiple mineral soaking pools surrounded by forested beauty.
- If you’re up for an adventure, try booking a permit for Scenic Hot Springs. I made the climb and was rewarded with natural pools and sweeping mountain views—you’ll earn every minute of that soak.
- When I’m after rustic charm, Carson Hot Springs Resort is where I go. You’ll find soothing mineral waters and an old-school vibe that helps you fully unwind.
- And honestly, one of the best parts of Washington’s hot springs scene is how many are tucked away along Cascade forest trails. I’ve stumbled across a few while hiking, and you just might too.
