There are only two good days in both pool ownership and boat ownership. The day you make the purchase and the day you get rid of both.... Just my opinion...

Having owned a pool for over 40 years, I couldn't disagree more! I enjoyed mine for 7-8 months a year in Michigan, and year round in Georgia and Florida. I have always taken care of my own pools - if you go saltwater and do your own chemicals and cleaning, it will be less than $50/month. The cost in The Villages for a pool AND a birdcage will most likely be north of $60,000 - and that is for a basic pool (around 275-300 sq ft) with very little features added.
