We can have discussions about the pros and cons of this idea. If there was land that could be used initial construction cost would be in the millions. I am not an expert or have any knowledge regarding the maintenance but do know the costs of this river would be much higher than a regular swimming pool. If a person really wants a lazy river there are numerous slow moving spring fed(72 degrees and pleasant in the hot sun) rivers which are less than 1 hour from TV. In addition they are natural.

If this does not work, there are numerous water parks in the Orlando area

This idea makes the same sense as building an indoor ski slope. Do you beleive that all of the people who paid thousands for their own swimming pool to agree to this idea? I doubt it.
