Spring Description
The spring lies just below a cleared area a few yards from the larger Blue Spring. The pool is about 15 feet in diameter and is deep blue over the vent, which is visible from a log at the edge of the pool. The depth of the spring appears to be about 8 feet, and the water is very clear. The spring creates a run that flows northeasterly about 150 feet to join the Blue Spring run just below where it is blocked by a fence. Except for the cleared grassy area to the south of the spring, Little Blue is surrounded by dense forest floodplain.  A path has been cleared to the spring, and there is a small floating platform on the edge of the spring.

Use/Access
The platform in the spring appears to be designed to provide a close view of the spring.

Personal Impressions
A very attractive little spring that is overlooked by most of the visitors to Blue Springs, only yards away.
