History
The hot springs for which the town is named were renowned by native Yokuts Indians for their supposed curative properties. Resorts have existed in the area, formerly known as Deer Creek Hot Springs, since the 1880s. The large Hotel Del Venado was built near the hot springs in 1902. A commercial center, swimming pool and therapeutic center were added in the 1920s. The hotel burnt down in 1932, as did the commercial center in 1968.[6] The facility remained abandoned until restorations were undertaken in the mid-1980s.
Geography
According to the United States Census Bureau, the CDP covers an area of 0.7 square miles (1.9 km2), all of it land.
According to a U.S. government geologist in 1915, California Hot Springs is "about 35 miles southeast of Portervill. Four springs here issue at points 5 to 20 yards apart along the southern bank of Deer Creek Canyon, 20 or 30 feet above the stream bed. This group yields about 35 gallons a minute of water 120° to 126° in temperature. Half a mile upstream on the northern side of the creek, another group of one main and two minor springs discharges about one-third as much water at a tempera- ture of 105°. All of the springs are noticeably sulphureted, but they are not highly mineralized. Within the last few years a company of investors had made extensive improvements here. In 1908 a frame hotel and annex provided accommodations for about 100 people, and small cottages and tents erected in an ample camp ground near by have sheltered several hundred people at one time."[7]
