. . . Timeless -- that is the entire experience at Wilbur Hot Springs.
Absolutely timeless. There is no distractions, there are no urgent
issues, there is nothing to worry about while you are there. We
relaxed in the simple beauty of the baths and enjoyed the many amenities
that the resort had to offer, such as the reading room, the pool
table, the natural setting -- everything had a relaxed charm to
it that seemed to be a place out of time.
My
wife and I visited the Hot Springs to try something close to home
(Sacramento), adventurous and new, as well as to be easy on the
wallet. Wilbur gave us all of those and more. We arrived
and noticed right away that there was a very serene and peacful
calm about the place -- no loud noises, no cars or highways, no
planes overhead, no modern life.
We naturally
started speaking in whispering tones, out of reverence for the environment
we were in.
As
soon as we unpacked the car, we forgot all about watches and clocks
and started to just have fun and be ourselves. There were times
that I felt like a teenager in love again for the first time --
there were no pressures on anything and no restraints about what
I could do or when. My wife and I connected on new levels
as we were removed from distractions that have built up around us.
We enjoyed just sitting and meditating in the baths, and also playing
like kids in the swimming pool.
The
stars! Oh the stars! At night, after we watched the sun go down,
we just relaxed in a hot pool and watched the stars appear. In the
city you could never see so many stars. We even were able to see
the Milky Way and how the collection of stars leaves a gentle white
field in the sky. It truly was a awesome site.
Both her and I agree that this was our best vacation that we have ever taken."
"Re: having time alone at Wilbur Hot Springs. I have several times spent an entire day at Wilbur without talking to anyone. People who go there are extremely sensitive to the peace and privacy of others. In fact, talking is strongly discouraged in the tubs. There's a sign by the road just before you arrive at Wilbur that says Time to Slow Down, and that's just what people do -- slow down and calm down. You can hike without seeing another person for hours. Because it's far from the highway and there's no electricity, it's extremely quiet. I find it one of the most peaceful places I've ever been too". Melinda
"... I am so glad that you are committed to maintaining the quiet, rustic, far away feel at Wilbur that increasing publicity can threaten. I can't wait to return." " ... I have been coming to Wilbur Hot Springs for over twenty years - sometimes I feel more at home at Wilbur than I do when I visit my actual birthplace (midwest) - I suspect it is a heart connection." " ... Gratitude to Wilbur. This past weekend I was privileged to practice yoga on your deck in the early morning. Refreshing sounds of nature, birds, running water, a whirring visit from a humming bird during one of the asanas - and I ask myself; can heaven wait?" " ... I am a huge fan of Wilbur and have been since 1990 when I "first" discovered it." " ... Although I'm far away (South Florida), just knowing that Wilbur Hot Springs exists brings me peace. I can't wait to come back. Thank you."
" ... Keep up the good work. Wilbur is a sacred place." " ... There was a terrible toxic spill in the river near Dunsmuir so we opted to go to Wilbur Hot Springs instead. I was so in awe of the grounds, hotel, water, surroundings, that I have made it a 'must' to come at least once a year. The first couple of years the kerosene lamps were still there, which I thought was just so cool, it really felt like I was stepping back in time." " ... I'd like to thank you for every thing you've done to bring this healing, magical place to all our lives. You've given us gift that is so necessary and I believe the 'regulars' there consider it as a place of there own, if only for a few days, and take care of it and respect it."
