The largest natural springs in Georgia are found just outside of Albany. The waters, which are consistently 68 degrees, contain traces of radium, and the site was dubbed Radium Springs. A casino was built overlooking the springs in the 1920s, and the area experienced a tourism heyday as a spa and resort. Flooding of the Flint River in 1994 and 1998 severely damaged the casino, and it was ultimately demolished in 2003.
