Alvord Hot Springs is privately owned by the Davis family and hosts twin concrete pools dating back to the 1940s and modernized over the years. The hot springs have on-site caretakers, a small store/reception center, restroom, bunkhouses and campsites.
The pools are near the East base of Steens Mountain, one mile below the summit at the edge of the Alvord Desert. The water comes out of the ground at 170 degrees and cools when mixed in the soaking pools. Overnight guests can use the pool at any hour, while day visitors are welcome during normal business hours. Our General Store sells Beverages, Snacks, Ice, Alvord Ranch Beef, Bath Towels, Clothing & Souvenirs, Propane, Bottled Water and other miscellaneous necessities.
