Hot Springs
Best Hot Springs experience in the area. About 25 minute drive from BV. There are four different pool experiences. The historic bathhouse is the access to soaking in the river hotpots. I also recommend the infinity pool. The upper slide pool is great for kids - only open in the summer.

Experience
My favorite guided rafting experience in the valley. Just south of BV with river access at the facility. Look for live music by the river in the summer. Their cafe serves fish tacos and margaritas to enjoy while the music and the river flows.
