Haven Hot Springs, Idaho
( photos taken by John Caccia 9/19/08 )

Here is the cafe and four single room motel in the background.
The small rooms rent for $85 per night and each include an outdoor private hot tub.
A large washer and dryer/utility room is housed within this motel building.
The gas station with double bays (which can be used as a shop) is not shown, but located just to right of cafe.
The underground gas tank and adjacent soil was inspected in 2001, found clean and brought up to EPA standards.

Photo on thew left is the view (across Hwy 21 and the South Fork of the Payette River) of the mountains to the south.
The fire burned thru this area in 1990. Original Haven buildings were pretty much burned to the ground.

A few of the big Ponderosa Pines and a large Maple and Elm tree survived. Fred has since planted alot of Ponderosas.
He and Marla have done very well with a variety of flowers (especially roses) albiet the soil is primarily decomposed granite.

Photo on the right is the only signage currently used to advertise Haven Hot Springs.
The mail boxes are for the little subdivision of 12 - 15 cabins located adjacent, and out of sight along the east end of the property.

This is the main pool. It is clear clean and "silky" to be in. There is no sulfer and no odor of any kind. It is around 100 degrees.
The water is gravity piped, buried along a side hill about 300 yards from a 145 degree spring running 25 gallons per minute
at the upper cornor of the property.

Where the water comes into the pool it is too hot to touch. There is a valve here that diverts some of the hot water to heat the motel.

To the left of the pool is a large flat area ideal place to build a Pool Lodge complex or just about anything...
Not too far to the right and about 15 feet below the level of the pool is Idaho Highway 21.

 

This is the view looking from the pool to the grassy area behind the motel and cafe into the existing camping area and RV sites.
The private motel hot tubs are behind the tall fence there on the backside of the motel (the near building).

You can see the small trailer and beyond that and to the right, a cornor of their larger trailer house on the eastern edge of the property.

They keep 3 horses in a nice shady corral that is also the site of a small cold water spring which the horses drink from.
They also have 2 good volume/quality cold water wells and USFS water rights to Kirkham Creek which flows onto there property thru a pipe.

What can be seen in this direction is about 1/3 of the total acreage included in the sale of Haven Hot Springs.
The remaining 10 acres behind this view/photo is "rough ground", brushy side hills with gullys and 3 -5 nice large flat pockets of land.
