There’s nothing more refreshing on a hot summer day than a dip in a cold swimming pool. While you can find a chlorinated swimming pool on almost every corner, it’s rare to find one that’s filled with mineral-laden water. There’s one hiding in a small town in Oklahoma that’s open to the public and believe me, you’ll want to visit it this summer. Check it out below:

Gage Artesian Beach is located in the small town of Gage, Oklahoma, at E. Independence & State Hwy 15.

It's a unique swimming hole that's filled with mineral water instead of chlorinated water. It was discovered in 1917 when workers were digging for oil but instead found water.

Cement sides were built up around the water, but it features a sandy bottom, instead of the typical hard surface you'd normally find in a swimming pool.
