Harbin Springs (formerly, Harbin Hot Springs[1] and Harbin's Springs[2]) is an unincorporated community in Lake County, California.[1] It is located 3.5 miles (5.6 km) east-southeast of Whispering Pines,[2] at an elevation of 1555 feet (474 m).[1] Harbin Springs is probably best known as the site of the Harbin Hot Springs.

James M. Harbin came to California in 1846 and co-discovered the springs in 1852.[2] Harbin bought out his partner in 1860 and built a home and later a resort that by 1909 had accommodations for 200 guests.[2]
