News about the old Bath House building on our property: April 2012. The original Bath House of Jemez Springs built in the mid 1800′s, and located at The Giggling Springs (end of the driveway) has won a nomination to be put on The Most Endangered Places List for 2012 by The Historical Preservation Alliance!
