Fish Lake Valley Hot Springs
Dyer, NV
A concrete soaking tub and warm wildlife ponds sit beneath Boundary Peak on the Nevada–California line. Stargazing is unreal thanks to Bortle Class 1 skies, and the artesian well feeds the tub with a steady 105°F flow.

Ruby Valley, NV
A network of azure pools shimmers in the marshes south of Ruby Lake, offering wide-open views of the Ruby Mountains and a short boardwalk leading to the 30-foot main pond.
Spencer Hot Springs
Austin, NV
Cowboy tubs overlooking Big Smoky Valley let you dial in the temperature by swinging the 130°F feeder pipe in or out. Sunset views over the Toiyabe Range and frequent wild-burro sightings make it a classic stop along U.S. 50.
