This was my first time at the natural pool, I had never heard of it before the day I visited. When you enter, the staff gives you the run down on all the rules and you're on your way. The water was freezing but perfect for a hot summer day. Plus, you get used to it pretty quickly. I loved the different depths of places you could swim. There were many times that I was surprised that I couldn't touch the bottom (I'm 5'4). The bottom has a slimy texture from the algae buildup. I thought it was nice but the rest of the people in my group thought it felt gross 🤷‍♀️ Due to what I think is from the plants cleaning the water, it smelled of cilantro in the air. (Or maybe it WAS cilantro??) I was really excited to see all the big fuzzy bees on the plants, pollinating away. Overall, it was a really nice pool!
