What Are My Country Swimming Pool Options?
Anything is possible when it comes to a pool in the country. But it boils down to location, size and desired activity.
The best place to start is to take account of the size of the space available. This will dictate the shape of the pool.
Carefully consider how much space you want to be dedicated to the entire project; decks, outdoor kitchens, pergolas, poolscape, and yard-to-pool patios all take additional room and must be considered when thinking of potential pool locations.
A general rule of thumb is if the space is long and narrow, consider a rectangular lap pool design; wider areas will give you more freedom to have a specialty shape.
Before you make that commitment, consider your above-ground pool counterparts or even hot tub options.
Small note, above-ground pools that are worth their salt are year-round pools.
They can be set semi-inground as well.
Alternatively, hot tubs offer a completely different activity and for some an incredible addition to an outdoor pool. One additional reminder about a hot tub is the much smaller time, maintenance, and financial commitment.
Ultimately, the decision comes down to what your family wants and needs.
We’re here to assist you with that project. One major difference between country pools and spas is there is much less restriction by HOA’s and governing bodies. Although there is oversight, it is much less restrictive.
What Materials Should I Incorporate Into My Country Pool And Spa?
We believe gunite pools are the best quality materials available in the swimming pool industry.
Neither vinyl nor fiberglass can compete with a concrete pool in regard to longevity, creativity options, long term maintenance, and customizability.
Concrete pools allow for several lining options from plaster to tiles and come with all types of amenities, additions, and upgrades. Throughout the life of the pool, if maintained properly, it will look like new much longer.
What Country Pool Extras And Accessories Can I Add?
Country swimming pool ideas are endless.
A diving board, slide or small waterfall to make swimming more enjoyable, floats, toys and lounge areas for ultimate relaxation. kitchens, cabanas, fire pits, pergolas, and party areas are all possibilities when space isn’t the limiting factor.
An outdoor shower and changing station, seating and sun protection, like chaise lounges and umbrellas. The sky is the limit for pools and spas in the country.
