Getting There
You reach Spencer Hot Springs by vehicle via a dirt road with drive-up access, making the journey easy without any hiking required. Parking is limited and informal, so arriving early ensures a spot close to the springs. The remote location means cell service may be spotty, so come prepared.

The atmosphere remains quiet, with few visitors, letting you enjoy one of Nevada’s more serene swimming holes. Facilities are minimal—there are no developed amenities—so you experience a truly natural hot spring environment.
Tips for Visitors
Visit any time of year, as the warm water provides year-round comfort even in cool weather. Bring water, snacks, and sun protection since there is no shade or services nearby. The springs are free to use, but pack out all trash to help preserve this primitive site. Respect the natural surroundings and other visitors by keeping noise low.
