Day Pass for Springs
I don’t want this place to become saturated, however, it is amazing. I have a spiritual awakening every time I come here.

Off the beaten path beautiful campground and hot springs! Instructions were very clear, campground was well tended to, trails well marked and access was much easier than I thought. The hot springs were nice and toasty with varying temperatures. Definitely coming back to spend a longer time!

It was great. Been coming for a good 3 years now. I appreciate all the improvements they have made. The only uncomfortable part was I booked online. We got a message asking when we were showing up. If we wanted wood...directions ... A lot of good information. We responded immediately said we would be there at midnight. We rolled in at midnight. Getting ready to settle in...some random dude shows up lights blazing and questions us about being there. Mind you there is no service. I didn't get screen shots. I have never had a problem here before. After a while the man finally acknowledges he had correspondence from me. But he definitely gave the feelings like we were trying to pull a fast one. Idk. It wasn't the most comfortable welcome. Especially where we wrote that we were coming at midnight 4 hours prior. We also wanted to buy wood. We were looking forward to having fire that morning. But the wood didn't come until the next night. I mentioned when the gentleman came questioning us that we wanted wood and asked about it in the message. We were bummed we didn't get wood until the next evening kinda late. And it was a bit of a chilly afternoon. So bring a little wood if you don't want to wait. Take screen shots of everything. I don't think they update the system on their end too regularly.

We purchased the hot springs day pass. Unfortunately, the host never contacted us with gate code/check in information or directions, which meant that his warning he gives all visitors “NOT to take forest route 11!” Was never received. This meant we spent 5 hours driving over the back of a mountain, through feet of snow and ice, on a forest road that had apparently been closed for the past 8+ years. If not for the fact that we were driving an F-350 and carry chains, we would have been stuck slid off the side of the mountain somewhere without cell coverage.
When we finally got there, the “directions” took us to some dudes house??? So we drove down the road to a bridge and eventually found the gate to the campground. But of course it was locked and we had not received the combo because the host never contacted us. A passing neighbor took pity on us and pointed us up the road to the owners home.
By the time we got checked in, we only had 3 hours left of our 10am-5pm block. And despite what the owner claims, there are only two usable pools this time of year. The third is in the 90s and unbearable with for long. We used the main pool, because it was the only pool accessible to us during the 1.5ish hours we actually got to enjoy the waters. The other, nicer pool was occupied by one lone nude man who didn’t seem to take kindly to the children joining him.
Overall, 2/10. Definitely not worth the fifty-some dollars I paid and the day of my life I wasted getting there.

Last min adventure to surprise hubby. The owner is a wonderful man that has an amazing story. NOTE BRING BUCKET! The area is beautiful, so peaceful, road little bumpy towards the camp so if in a car be prepared to dodge some pot hole BUT it is not anything that cant be done taking your time. You pull up unlock the gate go in lock gate behind you. Then drive over to meadow where there are multiple areas to pick to camp with picnic benches. We did just for the day but definitely will be back to camp. We pulled up to back fence far side of the meadow. Just to the right of the fence is a little path that leads to the pools. We only did the first pool but it is amazing. Note make sure to drink lots of WATER!! The water will detox you. Kicked my butt the next day because I didn't & I soaked for long periods at a time. I loved being able to soak then step into the cold creek. Invigorating. It is so peaceful just relaxing. First attached tub super hot feeds into the 2nd tub. BUCKET is to get water from creek to cool 2nd tub down if needed. It can really heat up from the first tub. & DONT PULL THE TENNIS BALL you will drain the tub.

Hot Springs Day Pass
Followed the directions for the day hot spring use. All went well except there was ‘maintenance’ being done on the first/ closest hot spring. The dude was occasionally scooping mud out but mostly enjoying the spring all to his (nude) self. Went to the next spring and joined a nice couple.

I’ve loved this place even before it was a hipcanp. Now I’m even more pleased with my experience. They have built up the hostprings site with an even larger soaking tub. The campsites are great and the water is hot and refreshing! I’ll definitely be coming back!

As the host says, it’s a magical place, it truly is the beauty is beyond your imagination, if you’re looking for a healing journey solo or a couple it’s the place to go. I spent 3 nights and 4 days at the ranch. Everything was just so easy from checking up until check out the communication and detail details were superb. And Jimmy, Jimmy is just amazing, he works on the ranch and drives around on a quad and brings you firewood and tells you amazing stories about the ranch. Oh, and if you happen to see Doug, he’s just a regular who loves to take care of the place and he does such a great job. Thank you Doug for taking care of the hot springs and all that you do the love that you pour into the hot springs shows and is felt! As the reviews say, the drive down is a little sketchy but once you get there, I promise it’s worth it. I look at the cars on the side of the road as a piece of art a story don’t let it scare you away. I will be coming back.

Hot Springs Day Pass
I've been lucky to have traveled much and camped frequently. Kosk Creek camp is a gem. Great energy between the sounds of the rushing creek, the wind through the trees, and the sweet scent of the forest with hints of sulfur from the nearby hot spring. A Top 10 place for certain. .

Incredible property, can't wait to return. One large very warm tub (you can adjust temperature using attached source pool) as well as 2-3 pools along the river in two other locations, benches, and soon a covered deck area. Easy to find, easy parking.

The roads out to Kosk creek are remote and sometimes sketchy (the road to McCloud is dicey with tree fall, rockfall, landslides) but the camp felt safe and the caretakers were nice. Beautiful spot and great that they've made this sacred place accessible and well maintained.

The camp host was really great about helping us find the camp and check us in despite a late arrival. Be warned - there's no cell service and it's a bit difficult to find in the dark. Check your email directions before you get too far out there! Creekside campsites were lovely and multiple hot spring pools gave a variety of soaking options. Very cool if you're willing to make the trek!

Amazing place to visit!! It can look sketchy on the way down the 17 mile drive to the property but trust me it is worth it to push past the car junkyard 3 miles before your destination. Such a healing space. Already looking to visit again in May. Thank you Scott for the wonderful pre-Thanksgiving stay!!

What an incredible stay! We had no problem arriving late in the evening (about 1:30am we came from Washington) and were able to use the hot springs at any time. This is definitely a new staple campground just be wary of the insane potholes leading up! No issue finding the place and facilities were so nice and clean :-)
