Twelve miles or so from Hansen, in Twin Falls County, Idaho, Artesian City Hot Springs comes up at body temperature beside a road. Neither an owner nor a land unit is on file, and public access goes unrecorded. Soaking warm, with no burn concern. Whatever is built around it, if anything, is not described.

Location

A little over forty-three hundred feet, in a dry corner of the state that sees around fourteen inches of precipitation and a couple feet of snow a year. Average temperatures hover near fifty. The road is within a stone's throw; its name is not given. Lower Penstemon campground, the nearest on file, is sixteen miles off.

Winter is the season on record, December through February, and with modest snowfall that is workable most years. Roadside means no walk. Ownership is a blank in the record, so treat it as possibly private until a sign says otherwise. No water chemistry has been sampled here, and no fee is listed.
