Pocket Guide: California Desert Hot Springs Hotels
Known as California's spa city, Desert Hot Springs lies 11 miles north of Palm Springs in Coachella Valley. Famous for its natural hot and cold springs, Desert Hot Springs has a great collection of hotels and spas and has a tranquil, relaxing vibe.
The healing qualities of Desert Hot Springs' natural spa waters were first discovered by Cabot Yerxa, an explorer who settled in the area in 1913. He discovered two aquifers – underground permeable rocks – near the Mission Creek Fault, which heat the waters up to 180 degrees and are ranked as some of the finest in the country.
