One major factor in this snowbird couples' decision to sell our Sarasota home after 9 years was the pool.
Weeks of work cleaning the white bird cage and off white pool and lanai deck and the cost to run, repair and keep pool clean while up north, was not trivial.
The fun of having a pool (and it was fun) was well over-shadowed by this cost and effort. (and it was costly and expensive)
Never again!
