Long known to Salish First Nations people of the area for their healing properties, settlers discovered the hot springs in 1858 when a prospector fell in and was astonished to find himself in - hot water. The waters from the two springs are piped to Harrison Hot Springs Resort's pools, where they are mixed with fresh water to cool them down to tolerable levels. The mineral pools here are accessible to resort guests only, but a nearby public pool is available for a fee.
