Take a Dip in Our Geothermal Mineral Pools

At Dr. Wilkinson's, the mineral pools aren't just an amenity—they're the reason people have been coming here for generations. Fed by Calistoga's legendary geothermal hot springs, our three mineral pools invite you to slow down, soak deeply, and let nature do what it does best. With one indoor pool and two outdoor pools, each maintained at a different temperature, you can find your perfect soak, whether you're easing into the day or winding down after an adventure.

Daybeds and Private Cabanas

Turn your soak into a full day of relaxation with a private cabana or poolside daybed. Whether you're gathering with family, catching up with friends, or simply claiming your own little slice of sunshine, our cabanas offer a cushioned double daybed, overhead fan, and shaded curtains for a little extra privacy, while our daybeds are perfect for basking by the pool.

What Makes Our Hot Springs Water So Special

Mineral-Rich Healing Power

The science behind Calistoga's hot springs is as impressive as the soak itself. Our natural mineral waters are rich in sulfur, zinc, magnesium, calcium, and bromine, a powerful combination that draws impurities from the skin, exfoliates dead skin cells, relaxes sore muscles and joints, improves conditions like eczema and psoriasis, and helps relieve pain associated with rheumatoid arthritis.
