Yes you can go for the day. Many people do. Not sure the exact fee but I believe it's $35 per person for the day. You have access to all of the hot tubs (which you fill yourself so they're always clean) plus the pool, the private showers, the sauna, the hiking trails and so forth. Bring a picnic and plenty of drinking water. And hats ! the sun is pretty intense during summer. From Merced head south on I-5. Take the exit near Firebaugh (going west). The exit will say something like: "Little panoche Road" Better yet just check Google Maps. PS there is zero cell service out there. No Towers. No service. Be prepared. 😎
I usually stop on my way up from so. Cal. It's $35 or $40 per person for 4 hrs.i love to just lay and soak. Tubs are a good 6 ft long. As shared by vrz 779, bring plenty of water. It is hot in the summer. No cell service as also stated. There are umbrellas over the hot tubs. Be sure to take any silver jewelry off as it will tarnish. The water has sulfur compounds in it.
Directions from Merced please, thank you.
