About This Spring

The owner of this property has tapped into the spring and offers the water to everyone for a freewill donation.  The water comes out of a PVC pipe attached to a garden hose in the corner where his driveway and Corwin Rd. meet.  You can bring as many jugs as you like, no matter what time of the day or night; but remember that this is a private property with the owner’s house right next to the spring.  The water flows 24/7/365 continually and at a good rate, too.  The donation drop box is alongside the spring; just drop in whatever amount you’d like.  If you don’t have it, bring it next time.  It’s some of the best water I’ve ever tasted.

The Little Miami Scenic Trail runs alongside Corwin Rd., and there’s an asphalt walkway to the road.  Just cross Corwin Rd. and you’re there at the spring.

UPDATE: It has been reported this spring was closed by the owner and the hose has been shut down.  Sign now reads “Private Property, Non-Potable Water”.  Sorry, please update us if there’s any change..
