OK- to answer all these questions...

If you go back and watch the installation videos you would see that the wall is holding aback about 40 TONS of gravel and rock. I take the wall out and everything slides to the swimming area.

Also - the plants that help keep the water crystal clear stay outside the wall and you swim inside the wall. Hope that helps.

Oh. And the wall will not rot. To rot you need oxygen and there is not enough under water. Plus the wood is white oak which is very resistant to rot. (And very very heavy!)

And about the Natural part. It is called a natural swimming pool because we use nature to keep it clear not chemicals. (I didn't name it - there are lots of different ways to do it!)

Finally - the chance of snakes is quite small. They would much rather be down in the lake where it is quiet!

Thanks for all the comments and so sorry we can't answer every one!

Wow! When i was little my parents built a swimming pond 1/4 of the size... they added a wooden deck and had fish and water lillys. We were able to enjoy the water and they enjoyed coffee on the deck. It was a dream! My dad passed away a few years ago and when this came up it made me cry so hard! What a special time to build this together AND enjoy! It looks incredible in every way!!!! 🎉

Doing all of this with your dad together must be one of the best experiences

[bmck]

Enjoy those memories with your dad. I'm 33 and mine passed away at 77 years old, 2 months ago.

Swore I had more time with him. Was unexpected.

This brought happiness and sadness seeing you and your dad playing in the pool.

Ok. Here's my two cents on the wall. First off, this pool is still in it's early stages. The wall is to indicate where the actual pool is and it's a fun place to jump from considering the deepest point is the center. Notice the two fellas didn't swim outside the wall, they were inside the wall, that's the pool. Which leads to me to think that their intention is have aquatic plants fill in that space around the wall which will create a more natural "pond" like setting in time. Whatever it is, the entire thing is wicked cool and it looks fantastic!

This is the way i see it, beautiful, well done, and practical!! So much comments on regarding the wood used, there a local saw that purchased reclaimed pine logs that have been submerged for over 100 year! Once they are mill and dry they produce some of the best wood solid for cabinets and furniture i have ever seen! And not only are they acting as retaining walls that hold rocks in place they also provides filtering for the water naturally. Sure there different ways this project could have been done but it fair to say that this project is done in a way that sense to him and me! Well done my friend!!

That is so badass!what makes it even more badass is that you guys built it yourselves as a family.

I'm not a pool expert by I think putting wood in the water was a bad idea and I think keeping some of those trees so close will be a pain in the butt when trying to keep the pool clean. Love the idea and design though! **Update** I just saw your update vid and you corrected me on the wood being used in the pool. Make sense now. Thanks!

[jamesreitz]

That looks absolutely beautiful well done 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

[virginiacash-renbjor]

What a great family project. A place for all to hang out and beat the heat from the hot summer temperatures. Ya all give me inspiration to go out and build my own natural pool. Now if only I could find that many strapping young men to build it for me. 😅❤

[margaretbedwell]

This is a beautiful swimming pool. Pricey I'm sure but way nicer than pools you see in most private homes. Great memories will be made and have been made with your family. Have a Blessed day.

[northernfishmother]

Awesome pond build, now you get to fill it with plants, let nature take over, and enjoy every second of it!!

[backseatdriver]

A LOT of work goes into making that but the results speak for themselves! What a cool and beautiful place you've created! Job well done.

[carolanegordon]

What a beautiful pool. I love how you got to spend time with your dad doing this, wonderful memories you have to cherish. And you have it on video. So nice. Looks do peaceful.

[miguelcondessa]

I have to say, you did a brilliant job and the pool looked magnificent.
Congratulations to you and may you have lots of fun for many years to come!

By Far The Most Amazing Pool I Have Ever Seen!

The wood wall will last longer than any of us will or our grandkids and their grandkids and so on. A lot of furniture was made by wood that was submerged underwater for over 100 + years.
