We went to this attraction today on Miracle Hill in Desert Hot Springs. It is so named because of 2 wells Cabot dug out, about 600 yards from each other. One produced hot water, the other, cold water. This man is known as the person who discovered this area with the hot, curative mineral waters and world famous, award winning drinking water there is. He was a merchant and adventurer and built his home after the Hopi pueblos. This 5000 sq. ft. structure was built with salvaged materials. It has 35 rooms, 150 windows and 65 doors. Unfortunately it had rained and the Museum had a leak so we couldn't tour it today. His trading Post and Gallery featured many local artists 0 very interesting.
