Rock Lake Pool in South Charleston, West Virginia was built from an old rock quarry which was in operation in the 1930's. The pool was opened up by the Wilan family in 1942 and it remained in operation until 1985. The pool was surrounded by high natural rock walls, which provided perfect opportunities for high dives and swings. It also included a 50 foot slide, water trampoline, fountain, and trapeze. It closed down due to competing pools in the area which offered cheaper prices.
