In
summers past the Jemez Springs Bath House became the hub of the Valley,
with people coming from miles around to take advantage of the healing
powers of the natural hot mineral springs. Tents sprung up making a tent
town. The bathhouse had a large swimming pool fed by the hot mineral
springs for all to enjoy but has since been filled in. Many wish the
pool was still there, but the large cement tubs still afford comfort to
those who still seek the healing waters. The Jemez Springs Bath House is
a State Historical Site, over a 100 years old.
Presently
the bath house is owned and operated by the Village of Jemez
Springs. There are eight large concrete tubs each separately
enclosed for privacy. The tubs are filled with 100% mineral
water from the natural hot springs using a combination of hot
and cold water. The cold water is cooled in large outdoor tanks
located outside next to the bath house.
