Glenwood Hot Springs Resort Working with Health Officials to Address Reports of Illness

On Sept. 11, the Colorado Department of Public Health & Environment issued a health advisory after four cases of cryptosporidium were reported. Out of an abundance of caution the children’s aquatic area at the west end of the Glenwood Hot Springs Resort was closed for the season while it undergoes rigorous disinfection. Glenwood Hot Springs Resort considers the safety of our guests to be a top priority and uses state-of-the-art filtration and disinfection systems in this area with 24/7 monitoring. All required systems appear to have been functioning properly and pool chemistry was within the state required levels at all times. The investigation has zeroed in on the children’s play area. The resort’s other water amenities which are not the focus—both hot springs pools and the adventure river ride—will remain open and operational as normal. We are deeply sorry and apologize to any of our visitors who have had a negative experience related to this incident. For more information, please see this Glenwood Springs Post Independent article.
