Situated along the Colorado River, this natural hot springs has attracted visitors for more than a century. Before the area was discovered by white men in the mid-1800s, the Ute Indians dwelled in the region and took advantage of the natural hot springs.the high content of sulfur and other therapeutic minerals attracts guests to the Yampah Spa, Vapor Caves and Mineral Baths. Guests can receive a wealth of treatments at the modern day spa, which was extensively renovated in 1990, or they can relax on a marble slap in the sauna-like Vapor Caves.

We are doing a hotel renovation in the area. There was a local man in the bar celebrating hs birthday and obviously a packers fan that continued to antogonize my men. We stayed and had dinner and drinks but the local men continued to antagonize my men. For example my guy had talked to this man about Baltimore losing and how it would help the Broncos and this guy flew off the handle about f- the Broncos and their schedule. There were some words exchanged and the bartender had to ask both my guy and the man to calm down. From there this guy was just off the handle. One of my guys used the restroom and when he came out the man waited for him to walk by and threw a fake punch behind my guys head, this escalated into him calling my guy a punk and from there it just got out of control. My guy confronted the man and it ended in the bartender asking us to leave. It is rare that this type of occurence happens and I am very dissappointed at the way the staff of the Bayou handled the situation. When we got up to leave the restraunt after we paid our bill everyone at the bar began to hound us as we walked out the door. For something that escelated from a simple football discussion I would have thought the bar tender could have kept her local guest under control better than that. I think he was out of line and completely at fault for egging my guys on. It is not often that I get to take my guys out for dinner after a hard days work but I will certainly not be returning to the Bayou. I think there staff is rude to outsiders and have no ccontrol over the locals in their establishment. It is unfortunate but during my continued work in the town of Glenwood I will not be returning to the Bayou for a retreat as I think the food is too highpriced and the treatment of guests from out of town is terrible.

I was wondering if I could get a travel sponsorship from the DJM to travel the region. I'm located in Maryland and my phone number is (240) 441-2913 Hi I got hired to work at Vail this winter, and I was offered a job at Beaver Creek but had to turn down.

The photos on the web of this site look so familiar, but are more modern than what I recall. It just struck me when I saw a photo that except for the way the building behind the pool looked, the overall structure, setting, layout etc were hauntingly familiar. Your time would be very much appreciated. It is one of my earliest memories and I'll never forget it. To have a photo would be a treasure.
