Relax, The Kids Are Back in School

Seasonal Serenity

The Glenwood Springs hot spot, bustling with vacationing families just a few short weeks ago, tends to quiet down a bit after school starts. Come fall, travelers can fully immerse themselves in the geothermal water and surrounding beauty without the chaos that can sometimes accompany peak summer travel season. At Iron Mountain Hot Springs, families are always welcome but it’s a fact that as youngsters head back to school, more of them are hitting the books these days than the pool.

Mild Mountain Weather
