About Deep Creek Hot Springs
Deep Creek Hot Springs, southeast of the high desert town of Apple Valley, is located on a creek beach which resembles the beautiful Lilies Beach near Mendocino. Located within the federal lands of the San Bernardino National Forest, Deep Creek Hot Springs can be found on the USGS Lake Arrowhead Quadrangle Map, 10 miles due north of Lake Arrowhead's outlet tower. As fantastic!! as this hot springs is, its slight Achille's heel lies in its remoteness, and the Achille heals which some nonhikers acquire when visiting it. But for those who would enjoy a moderate 45 minute hike in and another…

Long hike but worth it!
5.00The drive out is rough. Either plan on going slow or having a car or truck that can handle very rough dirt roads. The lady at Bowen Ranch was very nice. Their map down to the hot spring isn`t to scale, but the distance is fairly accurate. My GPS said it was about 1.82 miles and they said 2 miles on their map. The GPS also said the altitude change was about 956 feet. It is true what some of the other reviewers are saying that there is a younger not naked crowd on the weekend (at least this one) and a lot of people don`t police their trash or ignore the rules and bring glass or camp down at the…
Pros: Beautiful and scenic walk/hike. Nice hot pools and cool creek for both hot and cool days.
Cons: Long drive on rough dirt road. Long uphill hike one the way back.

Deep Creek Hot Springs over Crowding
4.00The Hot springs is nice but unfortunately the young college crowd has found the place and now every weeked, I have been twice in 3 weekend, the place takes on the visual of a frat party. So I hope they will tire of the steap up hill hike out and leave it to the people that really appreciate it. I did find some nice places on around the corner up the creek that are really nice.
Pros: beautiful scenery and a great hike and Bowman Ranch is a nice place to camp
Cons: over crowded on the weekends

Deep Creek Nude Hiking
5.00We`ve been to Deep Creek in summer and winter. The hot springs are great all year long, but the stream in front of the springs is much more fun in the summer when you can swim and play in the water. It`s a good hike which you can do naked, then relax in the springs. We have a full report and a short video at a href="http://www.thingstodonude.com"Things To Do Nude/a
Pros: Miles from the city and civilization, choice of pools with different temperatures, eclectic crowd
Cons: Long drive from LA, not everyone is nude
