The pool is at Rosecliff in Newport RI, one of the many mansions open for touring.

The swimming pool was at some house in England. The exact location is stated in a paperback book on the making of the movie.
The pond with the fountain IS in Newport, Rhode Island. It's in the back of "Rosecliffe," the mansion which serves as Gatsby's house.
The same house was in the beginning of James Cameron's "True Lies" - where it acts as some European mansion with royals partying inside.
If you look at the wide shots of Rosecliffe and the wide shots of the swimming pool, you can see that there is a definite disconnect between the two buildings.
