In the 1860s, local innkeeper Daniel Eastman offered water from the natural mineral springs in this area for drinking and bathing. Eastman’s Springs was soon a fashionable meeting place for Ottawa society. When the Boyd family, in the early 20th century, named their largest hotel after a famous European spa, the name changed to Carlsbad Springs.

In lieu of an actual log entry for the nearby cache (if you already found it), a sample of photographic proof of your visit would be nice. tks
