2026 Hot Springs in Missouri

We’ve cataloged 1 hot springs in Missouri, from 0 free & primitive pools to 1 resort experiences across the Midwest & Plains.

Missouri's hot springs heritage centers on Excelsior Springs, an 1880s-era spa town outside Kansas City built on five distinct mineral spring types. The Elms Hotel & Spa is the surviving anchor — a restored historic hotel with mineral baths, a spa, and the Hall of Waters town museum nearby. The springs themselves are cool to mildly warm rather than geothermally hot. Year-round access by booking; spa-day packages run $100–$300. Best for travelers seeking heritage mineral-bath therapy paired with a small Midwest spa-town weekend.

Winter can freeze surface pools—target shoulder seasons or indoor bathhouses.
