As one of the oldest discovered hot springs in Alaska, Manley Hot Springs will take you back in time and let you relax and unwind within a greenhouse of flowers, fruits, and vegetables. It’s truly one of the most unique experiences you can have when enjoying a hot soak in Alaska.
History of Manley Hot Springs
The springs itself dates back to the early 1900s where it was originally a vegetable farm. When the US army moved in to the location due to setting up a telegraph station, Manley Hot Springs started growing in popularity for a place to go after a long day.
Soon after a resort hotel was built which featured 40 plus rooms, restaurant, and giant swimming pool. Unfortunately it only lasted 6 years and burned down. It was never reconstructed and as time went own, the resort slowly became more popular as a ghost town than a hot springs destination.
Manley Hot Springs Pools

There are three tubs for you to enjoy, all located within the greenhouse. The water is fed directly in and keeps a constant temperature. There is a small fee to access the springs, but well worth it to experience this oasis like atmosphere.
