All are furnished with custom luxury amenities, and reveal splendid views that change throughout the day with the shifting colors of sunlight on the mountains. All are less than five minutes walk to the bar, dining area, and adjoining conference facility of the saloon, the hot springs in the teepee and bath house, massage and yoga rooms in the Pony Express Spa, the bank of the West Fork of the Dolores, the waterfall, and the library. Some cabins have direct feeds from geothermal springs. 

To their surprise, many visitors to Dunton find themselves so thoroughly occupied with the hot springs, massages, delicious meals, reading in the library, leisurely strolls, sentimental indulgence and conversation about the lore of the place that such activities inspire, they hardly have time for anything else.    But, for the adventurous, Dunton's situation in the midst of two national forests offers more wilderness than reasonably can be exhausted in a lifetime of hiking, riding, climbing, snow-shoeing, back country skiing, four-wheeling, fly fishing and there is also boxing for fitness in the gym and yoga and Pilates instruction.    Print a SpaFlyer Special Offer from Dunton Hot Springs Resort & Spa
