Halcyon Hot Springs Village and Spa is a hot spring resort and residential development in British Columbia.

It began as a rustic natural hot spring site and was later developed into a year-round resort offering a range of recreational opportunities for visitors and residents.

The resort is located on the waterfront of Upper Arrow Lake, with views of the Monashee Mountains.

The Upper Arrow Lake area offers a wide range of outdoor activities year-round, including boating, hiking, mountain biking, fishing, kayaking, paddle boarding, whitewater rafting, golf, horseback riding, ATV riding, skiing, ice fishing, and dog sledding.

Halcyon Hot Springs Resort Soaking Experience

Hot mineral water emerges from the source at 124-129°F (51–54°C) and is treated with ozone and, occasionally, chlorine before flowing into the pools.

The water contains high levels of sulfate, sodium, fluoride, and lithium, and has a noticeable but mild sulfur scent.

The resort features several pools across two decks.

The upper deck includes a large hot pool at about 104°F (40°C), a warmer pool at 99°F (37°C), and a cold plunge pool.

A seasonal swimming pool on the lower terrace is maintained at around 86°F (30°C).

All pools operate on a flow-through system, ensuring constant water renewal.

In 1890, Captain Sanderson built the first hot spring sanatorium on the site, including wooden pipes to carry mineral water from the source.

By the late 1890s, ownership changed hands, and the property was significantly expanded, including the construction of a water bottling plant that shipped mineral water to the United States and the United Kingdom.

In 1924, during the post–World War I period and Prohibition, the resort was sold to the White Cross Society under the oversight of General Frederick Burnham. Burnham renovated existing buildings and added new bathhouses and cottages. However, the resort later declined during the Great Depression.

In 1945, Burnham suffered the loss of his wife, Anna, and gradually withdrew from operations. His life ended in 1955 in a fire that destroyed much of the wooden infrastructure on the site.

The resort remained undeveloped for decades until reconstruction began in 1998. It reopened to visitors in 1999, with full completion of modern facilities in 2003.
