For Joyful Journey Hot Springs Spa: We stayed here for two nights in an RV. The cost was a whopping $172 per night plus tax! We knew that it was expensive but were persuaded in that soaking and Breakfast and Dinner were included. Their web site made the meals look excellent, so we went for it. What a disappointment. The RV sites are side by side and have no ambiance. There is no water available for using or for filling a tank. There is no sanitary dump station. Then there were the meals. If you were fond of your high school cafeteria meals, then you will love this. Breakfast was similar to the free meals in cheap motels. Dinner the first night was a simple chicken breast sprinkled with Italian seasoning. (They called this Italian inspired!) There were some soggy pre-fried potatoes. The salad was a few leaves of lettuce with squeeze bottle dressings of your choice. Dessert was two tablespoons of chocolate pudding with a single raspberry on top. There was a group that had booked the interior space, so our dining venue was folding tables on the grass outside, with ample gnats. In order to avoid this charming venue, we chose to get our second night’s dinner to-go. We were told that the meal would be a grain bowl with lots of vegetables. What a joke. The meat was last nights chicken cut into smaller sizes. There was a small scoop of plain, unflavored rice. They had opened a can of beans, black and garbanzo. Dessert was custard. That was it. Some of the staff were nice, others seemed to work at being rude, so a mixed bag. The hot springs were nice. The locker rooms were in poor shape.. To use a locker, you had to bring your own lock. The towels they provided were about as big as a hand towel. This will be our last visit.
