NORCALSOAK DESTINATION GUIDE · MENDOCINO COUNTY

Vichy Springs Resort

A historic resort best known for naturally carbonated mineral baths.

At a glance: Ukiah, Mendocino County, California. Independent planning information; confirm current rules and availability with the destination before traveling.

What makes this place different

Vichy’s signature carbonated baths offer a different experience from a very hot communal soaking pool. The resort also advertises a separate hot pool, seasonal swimming and walking trails, allowing visitors to combine bathing with time outdoors.

What to know before visiting

  • Day use is offered to visitors who are not staying overnight.
  • Review current day-use durations, prices and arrival requirements directly with the resort.
  • Seasonal swimming and individual facilities may have changing availability.
  • Bring appropriate bathing clothing and walking footwear; confirm the operator’s current rules.

Planning your visit

Choose your pass around what you actually want to do: the carbonated baths, hotter soaking or a walk on the grounds. A longer visit is useful when combining activities. Avoid treating the carbonated baths and hot pool as interchangeable experiences.

Common visitor questions

Is this a wild spring? No; Vichy is a developed resort. Do I need to stay overnight? The resort advertises day use; check the current booking details.
