freshwater pool

Non-saline water body

A freshwater pool is a body of standing water that isn't salty—a pond, lake, or natural basin fed by rain, springs, or streams rather than connected to the ocean.

The term also describes a swimming pool filled with unchlorinated fresh water: The resort featured a freshwater pool instead of the usual chlorinated one.
