The thermal springs originally discovered by the indigenous peoples are still in use today with open air but undercover tubs available to bathe in on a commercial basis. This is right next to the river, with hills all around. It's a great experience, and your pores and skin feel fantastic after an hour in the warm mineral rich water.

Looks great. Are they sulfur springs? Or less odoriferous?

no, not sulphur - though the mineral content is referred to, it is not described! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hot_Springs,_North_Carolina
