Mercey Hot Springs Campout

Mercey Hot Springs is located south east of Hollister, off of the road to New Idria. A campout would consist of riding bikes, going self-contained. We would start either in San Jose, San Juan Bautista, or Hollister, depending on the number of miles that we wanted to ride to get there. If the plan was to stay for two nights, then the middle day could be a ride over to New Idria and back.

Mercey Hot Springs has their own website, where you can go for more information, and to reserve a campsite. Camping is $20 per person per night. Clothing is optional at the hot tub, but clothing is required everywhere else (big swimming pool and campground). Day use fee is $15 per person.
