Blue Springs State Park

Blue Springs State Park is a natural area in Alabama featuring two swimming pools filled by an underground spring. The 103-acre site offers recreation and overnight camping facilities for visitors.

The property became a state park in 1963 after Alabama purchased the land from a private owner. This transition opened the spring and its pools to the public.

The spring pools served as gathering places for community events and local meetings during the early 1900s, shaping how people understood this location. These occasions made the site a recognized meeting point for the region.

The park offers multiple campsites with electrical and water hookups, with some including sewer connections as well. Visitors should check conditions based on the season and plan accordingly for their comfort.

The natural spring maintains a constant temperature throughout the year, making the water pleasant for swimming regardless of season. This steady warmth is a distinctive feature visitors notice immediately.
