The Original Springs Hotel

It’s an old easy to get to hotel prices were fair I think it was $63. If you’re into historical things it’s also a spring natural for you to bathe and soak in to heal your body. Very quiet staff was very friendly, a very rustic, explorer, type feel so if you’re up for an adventure to something that you’re not used to staying at it was a very nice place

This hotel is quirky, and very unique. I booked a package for 3 nights for me and a girl friend for a short R&R getaway. The massage therapist Tawn was great. Had a very good experience. We took advantage of the indoor pool. The staff in the restaurant are top notch and the service was excellent. The fried chicken was fantastic. The breakfast was great.

I have been interested in the healing mineral water baths since I first heard about the place. There were some things I did not know when we booked the room and somehow had not heard. I knew we were staying there over Halloween, and heard there may be some paranormal activity. I wasn't sure if I really wanted to know actual stories beforehand because it might be too creepy and talk myself out of it.

I stayed the first night in my room by myself. It was quiet and comfortable, apart from a couple of random loud thumps throughout the evening that I chalked up to maybe some doors closing in other areas of the hotel. But now I'm thinking otherwise.

To be honest, I'm really glad I didn't know much about the ghost stories. I feel as though knowing any stories could have influenced me, rather than allowing me to have a genuine paranormal experience- which was actually not the reason for this visit at all.

This morning around 9 am, as we were sitting in our beds, talking about what we were going to do with our day, we heard what sounded like a child running along the roof above us. We were on the 3rd floor. It wasn't logical that someone would be running on the roof, so I thought it must have been in the hall - even though it sounded more like it was on the roof right above us. We both heard it, plain as day. We had not seen any children anywhere, that was the only time we heard what sounded like a child running, and it was the entire length of the room. I mentioned it to the staff in the restaurant and they confirmed that others have heard footsteps as they shared some of their stories with us, as we were talking with them, we heard some thumps from behind us in the dining area.

I came home and found the ghost hunters episode that had been filmed there- which we learned about from the staff. In the episode, they heard footsteps on the ceiling in the room that was across the hall from the room where we stayed. Gave me goosebumps.

Very Friendly staff. Room was clean but I was over the restaurant so it was a little loud. But it got quite quick once they close. Mineral Baths were very relaxing. Bring head sets. My full message was extremely relaxing and Cindy did a wonderful job. I'll be back for sure!😊
