hotsprings
Heated natural waters
Hotsprings is a variant spelling of hot springs—natural pools or bodies of water heated by geothermal activity.
The two-word form is standard, but the compound appears in place names and casual usage: We visited the hotsprings in Iceland.
Many towns named Hotsprings or Hot Springs grew up around such thermal features.
