EDITOR REVIEW: BARTON SPRINGS DISTRICT. This huge, spring-fed swimming hole is surrounded by lovely gardens and pecan trees. The pool is fed by spring waters that maintain a year-round temperature of about 68 degrees, and bubble up at the rate of 27 million gallons a day. Trivia note: Robert Redford, at the tender age of five, learned to swim at Barton Springs. Schedules vary, but usually there are lifeguards on duty between 9am-6pm. The pool closes for two weeks in early March for spring cleaning. This Texas-size, spring-fed swimming pool spreads across 3 acres, and it guarantees you a chilling dip with a year-round temperature of 68 degrees. The limestone-and-gravel floored watering hole offers swimming, floating, or just timid toe-dangling.
