Historic Liberty Bell Pool

Historic Liberty Bell Pool is located at the FD Roosevelt State Park on Highway 354 in Pine Mountain, Georgia and is about 40 minutes from Columbus Airport. The FD Roosevelt State Park is the largest in Georgia and was visited here by the former president after whom it is named. The park offers many different trails and facilities including the pool and is open daily from 7am to 10pm.

The stone pool was constructed during the Great Depression by the Civilian Conservation Corps and is fed by the hot springs in the park. One of the reasons why President Roosevelt enjoyed the park was for the healing qualities gained from relaxing in the springs. The pool is open to the public Wednesday to Saturday from 11am to 6pm and Sundays from 1pm to 6pm between May and July. It is open at weekends only in August and again on Labor Day during the same hours.

The park features over 40 miles of trails that head over creeks and past waterfalls as well as trough hardwood and pine. There are a couple of lakes here on which visitors can go boating, canoeing or try a spot of fishing. Camping is permitted here with 140 tent, RV and trailer sites and there are also 22 cottages available for rent.
