I never knew what these were or even heard of these "hot pots" until Tony's cousin MarRissa called us up a couple weeks ago on a Saturday & asked if we wanted to go. Basically its like going to the hot springs. She knew of some in Saratoga Springs so she gave us directions and we met her & 2 of her friends there. I was not sure what to think of it at first so I brought my water shoes. I'm glad I wore them. It is basically a big mud pit in the ground full of very warm-hot water bubbling up from the earth. I just kept telling myself over and over that it was a spa treatment and tried not to think about if the water was hot enough to kill germs or not. We parked in a parking lot and walked to the hot pot, it took...maybe 10 minutes. The weather outside was perfect, a little chilly at first but not bad. We found a log to sit on and just hung out & chatted in the water. Eventually more people started coming so we decided to head out. I think we were in the water for an hour or longer.
