Not far off the beaten path, near the south side of Anza Borrego Desert State Park lies 910 acres of desert beauty. Agua Caliente County Park offers its day and overnight visitors three hot springs pools to choose from, ample hiking, camping and relaxing moments. Once a stop on the Butterfield Stage Coach route, settlers were able to rest their weary feet before continuing their journey. Operated by San Diego County it has become a place for families and friends to enjoy some outdoor recreation.

A very special place in the middle of the desert, about 2.5 hours drive on US-8 east. The water is perfect for soaking and relaxing. There are also outside cold pools for your enjoyment. Plenty showers and changing area. Everything is clean and well kept. The cost of $3 per person is definitely worth the visit
I like this place. We stayed overnight in the Cabin. The stars were shining beautifully at night.
