The Sand Springs Station is a historic site in Churchill County, Nevada that was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980. A Pony Express station existed there in 1860.[1][2] The ruins are located within the boundaries of the Sand Mountain Recreation Area.

The station was named for a sand-filled summit from which a spring emanated.[3]
