The eight natural springs that flow from the earth at Bedford Springs Resort have been revered as a place of rejuvenation since the time of the Native Americans. In the early 1800’s, Dr. John Anderson became well known for creating restorative treatments using the waters, and they became known as the “Best Waters in the United States.” As word spread of the wonderful medicinal values of the springs, guests from around the globe made the westward trek seeking the healing waters unique to this area. The Bedford Springs Resort continues to offer treatments inspired by the wonders of these special waters.
