20 Of The Best (And Most Underrrated) Small Towns In Colorado, According To Someone Who Grew Up There
Like many towns in southwest Colorado, Pagosa Springs is surrounded by mountains and national forest — but what this little town is best known for is its hot springs. The world’s deepest hot spring is found here, and the result is several hot spring resorts (and free soaking ponds near the river) with mineral-rich waters.
For an affordable, but centrally located hotel, book a room at The Nightingale Motel, and swing by the Pagosa Baking Company for an AMAZING breakfast.
