01 · A guest's stay
From the night before to the drive home, they know what to expect.
The same check that powers our own pages, sitting on yours.
The night before
They plan the soak from your website
Your "Plan your stay" page shows the springs nearby, how far, how hot, and whether anything's closed.
Over breakfast
This morning's check is already in
Closures and fires are checked every morning and the weather every hour, so it's today's forecast.
At the water

02 · For your property
Made for every kind of stay
Whatever you run, there's a page where guests already look for things to do. Pick yours to set up the widget.
03 · What it costs
Free. Really.
The only branding is a small credit line that links guests to the full page for each spring. That link is how we grow, so it's a fair trade.

- Closure and fire checks every morning
- Hourly weather
- As many sites as you run
Questions
Will it work on my website builder?
Yes. It's an ordinary image with a link, so it works anywhere you can paste HTML: WordPress, Squarespace, Wix, GoDaddy, Webflow or a hand-built site. There are step-by-step instructions under the builder.
What happens when a spring closes?
When the morning check finds a closure notice, the widget changes to Closed, or to Check first for nearby fire or weather warnings, and guests can tap through for the details. It changes back on the next check after the notice is lifted.
Does "No closures reported" mean it's open?
No. It means none of the public feeds (Forest Service closures, wildfire perimeters, weather warnings and park alerts) show a problem. Resorts set their own hours, so guests should still check before they go.
Can I hide the closure status?
Yes. Untick "Show today's closure status" in the builder and the widget shows the weather and forecast only.
Is my own spring listed? Can I correct it?
Yes, every hot spring we list has a free page. Send corrections (hours, prices, rules, temperatures) through Suggest an update or email hello@hotspringswest.com. Send a few photos and we'll credit you with a link back. Prefer not to be listed? Tell us and we'll remove your page promptly.
My town isn't in the list. Can you add it?
Usually, yes. Email hello@hotspringswest.com with your town and we'll add it.
How we choose and check listings: how we check. We earn a small commission when visitors book a place to stay through our booking links. It never affects what we list or how.
