At the heart of Truth or Consequences’ historic bathhouse district — surrounded by commercial spas — lies a rare and private oasis: your own geothermal retreat, fed by the hottest and most storied waters in the city. This spring is one of only eight original wells drilled in 1910, reaching deep into a rare aquifer that produces crystal-clear, odorless water at 108°F. The property comes with grandfathered water rights dating back to 1910 — a legacy privilege that ensures flow, freedom, and resilience for generations to come.
