The temperature is normally 108 in winter and summer starts 102 in am and is about 106 by evening. This one is drained and powerwashed weekly usually on Wednesdays. Fresh water is constantly flowing in and old exiting, allowing us to keep the hot springs natural.</div> <bR> <div> Middle Tub</div> <div> <IMG SRC="0275e070.jpg" border=0 width="350" height="263" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0">     <IMG SRC="038f5b90.jpg" border=0 width="245" height="185" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></div> <bR> <div> This tub is a little larger as it is oval shaped, about 14' x20'.

It originally was wood sided, built ~1914, but had been cemented twice over the years before we got it. We have split it in half using only the shallow end for people and covering the deep end as a utility water area (this feeds the little waterfalls in the tubs).  The stairs and sidewalks are new (2003) and the sidewalks have piping to run hot water for warm snow free walks in the future. The therapy pool also has a flow through system for natural hot spring water, drained and power washed every other Tuesday (see <A HREF="maple_grove_hot_springs_news_and_events.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Events and New Info"><U>events page</U></A> for scheduled dates).</div> <bR> <div> <IMG SRC="0295e070.jpg" border=0 width="350" height="263" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0">     <IMG SRC="039f6ba0.jpg" border=0 width="246" height="186" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></div> <div> The "Poolhouse" has a full kitchen available for all patrons to use, it includes pots, pans and dishes open 10 am-10 pm.
