Bridgeport Travertine Hot Springs Dispersed

Got to hot springs early in the morning, on your way out you can pull off to any other dirt roads on the right of you on your way out. We drove about 3-4 mins uphill to an empty spot with a fire ring. Spent the night with no issues.

Camped a little over 0.5 miles from the Hot Springs parking lot. Dirt road had 5-6 other groups on it. About a 10-15 minute walk to the bathroom at the Hot Springs parking lot. Stargazing from the hot springs was awesome!

would be a nice spot but drove all the way here to see “no camping”

Close to hotsprings. Need to drive about 5 min to spring. Lots of trails to explore.

Road was accessible for us in a Toyota Tacoma, but a Camry also made it up. It was a little crowded in the area we stayed (with 4 other caravans and trailers), as the other dirt road giving access to different campsites was more for high clearance vehicles (very steep and uneven). Hot springs in walking distance. Incredible views of the mountains. We would definitely stay here again. No waste services or restrooms, but a vault toilet was available at the hot springs less than a mile away. Would visit again!

Really nice spot, road difficulty 3/10, accessible. Pack in/out. The hot springs down the road are 💯💯💯💯💯

This area is pretty close to town so it’s not the quietest. There are also only a few roads to pull down and no fires allowed but we found space to hang out and set up up some tents.

The springs are real close too and they were perfect to dip into and relax as the stars came up. Unfortunately, some people were breaking the rules and camping by them. Don’t be like them! Camp only where you can!

Really great spot - please come prepared to deal with all trash/human waste needs. We were thrilled with the level of user stewardship. Impressive. There is a vault toilet at the hot springs parking lot, but it’s not great.

Road was very rough to get there but place was nice and very very close to the hotsprings.

First come first reserved

Camp just a small walk to the hot springs. Got crowed at the camp site toward the end of the day. Was still a relaxing spot.

No hookups but a beautiful spot. You park on the road and have to drive up to the hot spring not too far. You could even walk. Lots of people visit the hot springs so cars come by periodically but I wasn’t bothered by it.

I loved camping here. There’s a few spots off the road that leads into the hot springs, before you hit the sign that says no camping. Just pull onto one of the dirt roads on the left and find a spot! Any car or smaller RV could easily drive the road.

There was no one else there when I was camped there, and as a solo female traveler I felt extremely safe. It was quiet and secluded, beautiful, yet only 10 minutes off of 395, less than a mile from the hot spring, and I had full LTE cell reception (verizon).

There are rock fire rings that previous campers have made if you’re going to be here when camp fires are allowed. There’s no other amenities such as picnic tables or a bathroom, water, or garbage collection - this is free dispersed camping, so be prepared to be self-sufficient: pack out what you bring in and leave no trace!

Practice leave no trace, and enjoy. 1.7 miles from town.

The place was nice but disappointed with public restroom since it was stinky and filled up with trash in toilet. Disgusted!

This is a great place to stop in for some relaxing hot springs. The water in the springs we went to was actually super warm. We got there later in the evening and it was difficult to find a spot with the crowds, so try to time it right. The hot springs were easy enough to get to even at night, as long as you have a head lamp. This spot overlooks the valley and mountains on the other side so walking up here is beautiful! There’s pit toilets at the trail head but is a bit far from where camping is allowed.

The spot I got was next to the busy access to hot springs and is right before the sign the prohibits camping. For direction I recommend you not use the coordinates on Dyrt as the location is not accurate. Type in travertine hot springs on google so you find the road and any open spots to your left and right are ok to camp.

This was my first stop after leaving Truckee and heading south.

I rolled in later in the evening and found the many springs already quite full. Seeking some solitude, I opted to backtrack and find a camp spot on the road leading to the springs.

From what I could tell, there were at least three springs and there could've been others hidden a bit down the hill.

There's no camping right at the springs, but several pull-outs on the road in.

I found a spot on the hill with a great view of the valley and Sierras to the east.

Also wound up sharing a spot with two gentlemen who gave me some great recommendations for Death Valley.

Woke up early for a solo sunrise soak in the main pool and had it all to myself!

We went during Covid so we didn’t go in the water but it felt so warm on my fingers. The views around it are pretty surreal. I could sit here for the rest of my life.

We had a great time camping here. The hot springs were super cool and there were multiple pools scattered around the area. We swam in the small spring pools as the sun was setting and got to watch the stars come out. Some of the pools are super hot and others not much, also they are very muddy. You can’t actually camp by any of the springs but there are a few pull offs to camp at before you get to the springs. We had phone service. If you want to make a fire make sure you bring some wood as there wasn’t really any wood to collect from the area. It also got super windy during the night but our tent held up fine. Over all really great site, and free!

Who doesn’t want to camp near a hot spring. Very relaxing location we stayed here one night then drove to bodie

You are allowed to camp on the road to the hot springs, there are several pull outs making it easy however there is no camping past a certain point (signs stating) and not at the springs. There is a pit toilet in the parking lot for the hot springs but not where you can camp. We were able to camp with our 19 foot trailer but I don’t think I would recommend anything larger.
