From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Berkeley Springs State Park is a state park located in the center of Berkeley Springs, West Virginia. The centerpiece of this park are the spa facilities. Water flows from natural mineral springs at a constant temperature of 74.3 degrees. These waters are currently and historically billed as having medicinal or restorative powers. Native peoples visited these springs as did George Washington. The park is operated by the West Virginia Division of Natural Resources. In its literature, the park claims to be the only state-run spa in the United States.
