Welcome to ROCKS Water

No slick slogans or tricky words. We are located in the mountains just above Boise. Our natural spring is located just outside my window where I am typing this. The water flows to our holding tanks then into the bottles we provide to our satisfied customers. There's nothing else like it around. Try it and taste the difference.

Where did the name ROCKS come from?

We had the priviledge of sponsoring a booth at the "Taste of Idaho" last weekend.  What a fun event that was.  If you missed it this year, watch for it next year!  Scott and I got to meet a ton of people.  We answered many great questions about our water such as, "Where did the name ROCKS come from?"  The most obvious answer to this, if you know our location, is that we are located on about 4 acres of black basalt rock.  If you cruise through some of our pictures below, you will see rocks in the background of many pictures - or in the case of Channel 2, we were climbing all over them to get a good shot (...and no I have never seen a snake around here!)  "The Rocks Lodge" is the name that Dick Thomas picked when he established the lodge and tavern in 1969.  I think he tried to name it something like "Rocks Spigot and Beanery" since we found an old sign to that effect.  But I am sure he chose Rocks because of our location.  He is one of the old timers (who passed away here at the Rocks in 2007 - which is another story) who passed down the story of the two miners (written on every bottle and is written on the right of this blog).  So there you have it.  ROCKS water runs out of the side of the mountain and emerges from the black basalt rocks on our property.  I can see the spring box out of my office window as I write this.  It really is local.  It really is fresh.  It really is natural.  Nothing added, nothing taken out.  That's why ROCKS Water ROCKS!
