Calistoga mud baths?
 
I’ll be in Calistoga for a girlfriends’ weekend at the end of April. We’ve been there many times and decided we wanted to go back to Indian Springs (not staying there, staying elsewhere) for that gorgeous pool. To use the pool, we are booking spa treatments (on the Friday we get there, since they now charge an additional $50 on weekends to use the pool!). I’ve always avoided the mud baths, but I’m thinking about it. I’ve had one yay and a one definite nay from friends, but the “nay” was right after a wedding and a mud bath on top of wedding imbibing is apparently a bad idea, ha ha!

Any input on Indian Springs mudbaths? Thank you.

I find there are definitely pro and anti mud bath factions. I enjoy one once or twice a year (think I've done 7 in the last decade), but my BFF thinks they are absolutely disgusting.

You sound a little ambivalent - but I'd maybe book it just to find out if you are a 'pro' or 'anti' . . .

I decided to go for it. I’ll let you know how it went. Thanks for the feedback.
