Liberty Bell Pool is one of the world's largest rock, spring fed pools, holding over 550,000 gallons of clear spring water. Pool water is treated properly and is closely monitored with lifeguards and trained adult staff. The majority of the pool is 3-4 feet deep, with some deep end depths reaching 10 feet and the tip of the bell serves as a toddler pool with approximately 18" of water.
The pool was finished and opened in 1940 and has served visiting and local swimmers spanning four generations.
