Utah Couple's $2 Million Backyard Features 26-Foot Dive Tunnel
18 Oct
Summary
- A Utah couple built a $2 million backyard pool with a 26-foot dive tunnel.
- The massive pool includes a 90-foot artificial mountain with waterfalls.
- The unique backyard feature was designed for scuba diving practice at home.
In Springville, Utah, a couple invested $2 million to construct an extraordinary backyard pool, dubbed "The Mountain." This expansive aquatic feature spans 140 feet long and 60 feet wide, holding 360,000 gallons of water. It boasts a dramatic 90-foot artificial mountain, complete with five waterfalls and winding pathways leading to its summit.
A key highlight for the homeowners is the integrated 26-foot-deep underwater tunnel, designed specifically for practicing scuba diving. This tunnel, accessible via a concealed entrance within the mountain structure, allows certified divers to hone their skills at home, eliminating the need for ocean trips. The pool also features a 300-foot lazy river and a 60-foot water slide concealed within the mountain.
Beyond water activities, the mountain incorporates a full outdoor kitchen with granite countertops and stainless-steel appliances. The entire project gained national attention when it was featured on Animal Planet's "The Pool Master," showcasing how residential pools can be custom-designed for specialized hobbies like scuba diving.
