Big Stacy Neighborhood Pool

Big Stacy Pool is a free public pool in Travis Heights, Austin, that stays open year-round. It features a unique deep geothermal well that heats the water during the winter, alongside three lap swimming stations, a shallow kids' area, and a nine-foot deep end.

Commenters feel deep nostalgia for the pool, sharing fond memories of childhood visits, lap swimming, and former employment. However, many locals actively gatekeep the spot, urging the creator to take down the post to prevent overcrowding. Others debated sharing local spots publicly and brought up upcoming repairs.
