“The Spring House has a rich history of being used by the Hoottinger family to provide Alkaline Springs well water to its guests. When the Hoottinger property was donated to the Society we continued to make the water available. We don’t snow plow in the winter so weather permitting the Spring House is open every Saturday 9AM – 3 PM and every Sunday 12:30 – 3 PM. We ask for a donation of 50 cents per gallon for the water and we ask that you bring your own containers to fill from our Spring House sinks.” – Website
