I searched and found a website for Mermet Springs. Never been there. What is it like?

It was our first time there and I can say the overall experience was awesome. Glen (the owner) and his staff do a fantastic job. If you need a dive buddy, just let him know and they will arrange for you to dive with other "regulars" or other staff at the quarry. Everyone is friendly and accommodating.
For a Midwest diving location, it's very good as well. Facilities and setup are great and there are numerous "artifacts" sunk in the quarry to explore. If you dive the back wall, go down to the thermocline and you are guaranteed to see the large spoonbills cruising along.
My only complaint would be the local snack shack was very slow on Saturday. Not sure if that was an anomaly or not, but took foooorever to get our food. Which was good once we had it
