Natural spring that is the headwaters of Eagle Creek. The Dakota Indians thought of is as a spiritual place. There are burial mounds in the area (unmarked). The springs form a shallow pond and water occasionally surge with force out of the bottom of the pond making it look like the water is boiling.

  • is it safe for my kids to go in?
  • The folks who Geocache to it appear to think it is safe for kids: http://www.geocaching.com/geocache/GC5BP1B_boiling-springs
  • I've been to the boiling springs and although there are some paths along the outside of the water pool, kids should probably not go into the water.
