Nature Spring Resort & Inn, owned and managed by Mr. Reojun Y. Gabito, was opened in May 2007. It has airconditioned cottages with cable TV and skylighted bathroom with a unique, private mini-pool.  

Overnight rates are PhP800 (12 noon to 12 midnight) and PhP600 (6 PM-8 AM). 

The resort also has 3 steaming, free-form swimming pools of different sizes and depths (one exclusively for children), around which are changing and shower rooms; a canteen; grilling stations (for those who love to barbecue their own food); and picnic cottages. 

The clear, naturally-heated waters of the swimming pools, said to have sulfuric healing properties, are relaxing and soothing to the nerves, working wonders on aching muscles and tired bodies.
