How old do you have to be to go to the bathhouse in hot springs?

Bathhouse Row The Buckstaff Bathhouse is the only park system bathhouse, offering traditional mineral baths just as they were given in the early 1900s. Kids as young as 10 can experience the thermal whirlpool baths. Tubs are private, water is cooled to a safe temperature, and bathing suits are optional.

We recommend getting out of the water for 5 minutes every 15 minutes or so. This largely depends on the temperature of the pool you're in. You might need to get out more often in a hotter pool and less in a mild pool. Listen to your body.
