Fodor's Expert Review Takhini Hot Pools
Editor's Note: This location is reported to be under new ownership and therefore this review may contain inaccuracies.
Relax away the driving miles with a dip into Takhini Hot Pools at this complex off the Klondike Highway. Lounge or swim in the two hot spring–warmed pools (suits, towels, and flip-flops are for rent). There's also a campground, with space for both tents and RVs, a restaurant specializing in crepes, and a 20-bed hostel. The pools are open year-round, making for a breathtaking way to take in the wintry outdoors while staying warm and toasty. Private late-night pool rentals give you a good excuse to stay up past your bedtime. There's also a hair-freezing photo contest each February, and discounted admission to the pools on some weeknights in winter.
