Overview & History

Originally discovered and developed in the 1860s by John Teal and James Lehman, Lehman Hot Springs features multiple mineral pools historically ranging from 88 to 106 degrees Fahrenheit along Warm Spring Creek.

The resort experienced its heyday during the mid-20th century, notably serving as the traditional Senior Sneak destination for Wa-Hi (Walla Walla High School) students nearly every year from 1951 through 1962.

The Stubblefield family has held deep ties to the property since 1925, maintaining ownership for over 55 of the past 100 years. Today, while the historic cabins and pools remain intact, public access has been discontinued.
