Both Mike and Tamarah have had a long history of hot springing. Mike was on the Board of Friends of Bagby hot Springs from the late 1990’s to early 2000’s. Tamarah’s family had a long history of visiting hot springs since she was a child. When they met at Bagby Hot Springs in 2001, Mike had been to about 20 hot springs and Tamarah, about 30. Today they have visited over 250+ hot springs.
In 2013 they were able to purchase an RV Resort with hot springs and have been working since then to convert it to a Hot Sptings Resort with Yurts, Cabins, & private hot springs soaking. Over the years, they have been able to meet and travel with many hot springs legends, including Skip Hill, the Idaho Dippers (Chuck & Steph), Tim Messing, and many others. Getting to know those legends helped introduce them to Marjorie Young and when she retired from writing the guidebooks, she asked us to take over. It is an honor to continue the amazing work Marjorie Young & Jason Loam have done for the past 40 years!
