Why this spot
1858-1940 stage station, ranch and spa resort
A hot springs site near the Gila River with a nearby Butterfield stage station (Flap-Jack Ranch) by 1858, a ranch run by King Woolsey's partners in the 1860s and a 22-room resort built in 1897. It had 113 people in 1900 and 60 in 1940; the springs later dried up from irrigation pumping.View source →
