The first known white settler, Lewis Dunn, received a land grant for his service in the Revolutionary War and established his family near the river in 1807. A large hotel and tavern was built in 1819 near mineral springs to serve visitors seeking the purported therapeutic qualities of the water, helping establish the community as a resort destination. The town was formally incorporated in 1965 with a population of 290, and municipal sewer service was added in 1989, spurring residential growth and development. The Kingston Springs Hotel and Buildings, is a resort complex originally built in 1849 by Emanuel Kreider and rebuilt in the 1890s by Matt F. Allen after a fire destroyed the first structure.
