Michelle Poehlmann, the managing director for Bird Haus Farms, told MySA that its swimming hole has a manmade waterfall and is built into a wet weather creek. The swimming hole has a liner underneath to hold water as well. Poehlmann said the water stays cold and is cleaner than the Guadalupe River.
It remains filtered year-round and chlorinated in the summer for crystal-clear water. An oak tree also provides shade to cool off on a hot summer day. There are also rocks lined along the pond and two picnic tables. Poehlmann said there’s also a beach entry. The swimming hole is about 12 feet deep.
The property is under 30 minutes from Boerne, New Braunfels, San Antonio, Guadalupe State Park and Blanco State Park.
