About Double O Barnyard Spring
Double O Barnyard Spring offers a quietly inviting warm soak amid Oregon’s rugged landscape. With water tempered at a gentle 72°F, this primitive natural spring presents a peaceful place to relax surrounded by untamed beauty and the soft sounds of the forest.
Getting There
Reaching Double O Barnyard Spring requires some effort; a moderate hike through wooded trails leads you to this secluded spot. There is no formal parking lot, so prepare for limited vehicle access and a short trek on uneven terrain.
What to Expect
The spring’s warm waters feel soothing against cool mountain air, creating a tranquil atmosphere that encourages lingering. Facilities are minimal—no developed pools or bathhouses—so you interact directly with nature in its raw state. Crowds tend to be light due to the remote location.
Tips for Visitors
Plan your visit during weekdays or shoulder seasons to avoid any visitors and enjoy solitary time in this quiet Oregon swimming hole. Bring sturdy footwear for the hike and pack out all trash, as no amenities or services exist on-site. Leave no trace to keep the spring pristine and inviting.
