    Longstreet Spring and Cabin | Image Details

    Longstreet Spring and Cabin is a short walk from the parking area, approximately 0.2 miles round-trip (320 meters).  This boardwalk leads to an old stone cabin built by famed gunslinger Jack Longstreet, a mysterious man of the wild west. Built into a mound above an underground spring the cabin is cooler than outside temps and was used for food storage by Longstreet.The spring pool near this cabin is sometimes called the boiling spring because fine white sand bellows up from the depths gives it a 'boiling' appearance. Wheelchair accessible but no bicycles.
