The Original Springs Hotel is a mineral-spring hotel and spa in Okawville that traces its resort history to the 1860s and is described as Illinois's only continually operating mineral spring. Owners have said a third of guests come for its paranormal reputation, including a faceless figure in black seen near the pool, and Ghost Hunters investigated in the 2019 episode "Suicide Hotel." The owners have listed the property for sale, so its operating status may change.
Hotel, spa and restaurant when open; call ahead because the property has been for sale.
