Berkeley Springs West Virginia

Berkeley Springs, WV

The town of Berkeley Springs, West Virginia, might be small, but it has a close, tight-knit community. Despite its small size, however, the area gets a lot of visitors thanks to its reputation as home to the country's first spa .

Natural warm mineral springs are said to have been popular with Native Americans, and founder George Washington was known to bathe in the region's waters. In fact, the warm springs became well-known among Revolutionary War soldiers as legends spread regarding the water's medicinal properties. The town was originally christened Bath, in honor of the springs, but it later became known as Berkeley Springs because another Virginia town had already claimed that name.
