Montana is home to several hot springs.
According to Google, the state has 120 known hot springs, many of which are accessible to residents. While some are more popular than others, one hot springs location has been part of the state's history for some time and has a pretty impressive guest list.
Located in the small town of Boulder, Montana is Boulder Hot Springs. This popular destination has been part of the Montana landscape for over 150 years.
The Boulder Hot Springs opened its doors in 1863 and catered to locals such as miners and ranchers. Over the years, as the word of the healing waters spread across the area and region, thousands traveled to the little town to partake.

Not only did the hot springs host influential Montanans and various celebrities, but also hosted Presidents Teddy Roosevelt, Warren Harding, and FDR.
According to the Boulder Hot Springs website, the following is their mission statement:
"A historic landmark used by the First People of this land, we believe, as they did, that everyone should be able to enjoy healing mineral waters."
Things have certainly changed over the last century, however, the hot springs are still in operation and not only can you enjoy a soak, but you can also stay on the grounds for a wonderful getaway, have a conference, host a wedding, or a family celebration.
The historic buildings, which are visible from the road are something to see, and with several different rooms available for lodging, there is something to fit everyone's budget.
Of course, Boulder Hot Springs is just one of the many excellent choices locals and tourists can check out while in Big Sky Country. Yellowstone, Bozeman, Fairmont, Chico, and Quinn's Hot Springs are just a few of the many available to enjoy all year round.
