Avila Hot Springs features a large outdoor fresh water heated swimming pool with a sunny deck and double slide, which is carefully chlorine treated and tested several times each day, heated naturally via heat exchanged from an artesian hot spring, covered at night in the winter, and equipped with an ADA compliant pool lift. It also has a 20' x 20' therapeutic hot mineral soaking pool that is approximately 2 feet deep and 104 degrees, drawing water from a natural artesian well. Avila Hot Springs was discovered in 1907 by oil drillers and established by the Budan family as a visitor-serving natural artesian mineral hot springs oasis, and it is open to the public seven days a week with private and group swimming lessons offered throughout the year and regularly scheduled during spring and summer.
