Goldmyer is approximately 25 miles east of North Bend, WA on the S.E. Middle Fork Road (FS Road 56). Driving instructions can be obtained from the Goldmyer offices, located at 202 N. 85th, #106, Seattle, WA. 98103. Our telephone number is (206)789-5631. The office is staffed on an infrequent basis (usually Tuesday afternoons and Friday evenings), so be sure you call well ahead of your intended visit. Reservations are always recommended, and during the busy summer season, required to assure access. We limit access to 20 people per day. Call far enough in advance so that we have a chance to call back and confirm your reservation. The entry fee of $12.00 per adult per day grants you access to the property for either a short day visit or an overnight stay of up to 24 hours. Check-in time is from 8:00 am to 10:00 pm. Check out time for an overnight stay is 12:00 noon. Children are free, and must be accompanied by a parent or guardian at all times. Memberships are available for folks who intend to visit frequently. Maximum group size is 12. Reservations for all must be paid in full in advance. We accept credit cards for advance payments but not at the springs. The cost for use of the property is $12 per day per person . Memberships for a discounted rate are available for purchase. Contact the office for information, reservations and detailed directions. If you desire, use of the property can include camping in one of several beautiful wilderness campsites overlooking the river.

Goldmyer is traditionally clothing-optional and is definitely Nudist and Naturist-friendly.

Directions:
Take I-90 East to exit 34. Take a left at the bottem of the exit. Go straight, then follow the curve to the left and take the next right which is Middle Fork road. Set your tripometer to 0. Follow that to Lake Dorothy road and turn right onto Lake Dorothy. Follow that road for approx. 12 miles. You will soon be coming to a long bridge followed by a large parking/camping area on the left. Turn right up the hill - fairly steep and rugged. You will eventually come to a hairpin turn, stay to the left, don't go right. Stay on that road until your odometer reaches approx. 23.4 miles. You will be or soon will be at the Hotsprings road. It is marked by a small parking area on the right and a sign on a tree in the fork between the main road and the Hotsprings road with bullet holes in it that says stuff about trout anglers/catch and release. Park in the parking area or park down at the bottom of the Hotsprings road. Then you have to cross the river and walk up the trail into the woods, not along the river bank - 5min. to the caretakers cabin. It's about a 25-20 min. walk to the springs from there.

I have a GPX file of the route available on request.
