History

The springs were located and initially developed by R. S. Belknap in 1869. A post office named "Salt Springs" was established in the location in 1874, and the name changed to "Belknap Springs" in 1875.[1] The post office closed in 1877 and reopened in 1891, operating intermittently until 1953.[1]

Belknap Hot Spring

Belknap Hot Spring itself is located across the McKenzie River from the resort at Шаблон:Coord. It emerges from the source at 75 minutes per gallon at temperatures ranging from 147 °F–198 °F. The water is piped to the soaking pool facilities.[2]

Touted as a mineral spa in the late 19th century, since then the resort site has gone through several changes of ownership and had various improvements made to it, including the addition of a hotel (currently a lodge) and cabins, forming a summer resort community. The resort has been almost continuously open to the public since the 1870s, except for a period of closure from 1968 to 1978.Шаблон:Citation needed
