Colorado Hot Springs – The Romantic Getaways

Whether you’re looking for a romantic getaway or a family trip with the kids, you’re bound to find hot springs in Colorado to get your soak on.  I guess I watched one too many episodes of The Girls Next Door because I always assumed natural hot springs would be just like the grotto. You know, that jacuzzi cave outside the Playboy Mansion where models go to sponge each other.The only difference, I figured, is the natural version would have fewer butlers.Unfortunately, my first trip to a natural hot spring five years ago suggested otherwise. It amounted to a hot tub in California that smelled like rotten eggs and featured a snoozing senior citizen. This, I balked, is what all the hype is about? Unwilling to accept that hot springs are boring, I dragged my boyfriend on a tour of Colorado hot springs this past weekend. Our route included commercial and primitive hot spots within a two-hour drive of the Vail Valley. We strapped on our bathings suits and broke out our maps. It was time to get romantic.
