Bald Mountain Hot Springs in Ketchum, Idaho was a historic resort. Located at Main and 1st St. in Ketchum, the complex was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.^[1] In 2003, plans had been approved for a new 80-room hotel complex on the site.^[2]

The original complex was built as the Bald Mountain Hot Springs Motel in 1929 by Carl E. Brandt, manager of the J.C. Penney store in Hailey, Idaho, who had bought a different, decrepit hot spring resort enterprise northwest of Ketchum in 1827. Rather than fixing that up, he moved the hot water to the new resort location on Main Street in Ketchum.^[2] The resort included Rustic-style architecture and work by architects Tourtellotte & Hummel. It included the C. E. Brandt Residence, tourist cabins, and the natatorium where people swam in hot springs water piped in from three miles away.^[1]^[2]

While the original resort was planned to have 30 tourist cabins, the NRHP listing included just five contributing buildings and one contributing structure on 2 acres (0.81 ha).^[1] In 2003, three of the historic structures had been moved to a hunting club location near Hagerman, Idaho.^[2]
