Swimming Pool

at Bennett Spring State Park

After considering many factors, the difficult decision was made that the swimming pool will remain closed for the 2020 season. Please enjoy the many other recreational opportunities offered at Bennett Spring State Park​.

The park offers an Olympic-size public swimming pool as well as a wading pool for the younger visitors to the park. The pool, which has lifeguards on duty, is available from Memorial Day Weekend through mid-August for a nominal fee. For more details, please visit the concessionaire's website.

The motel, cabins, dining lodge, park store, swimming pool and canoe rental are operated by your concession hosts, Jim and Carmen Rogers. Let Jim and Carmen or a member of their staff make your visit to Bennett Spring State Park special. Ask about the fly fishing school or stop by the store for last minute items.
