Morning: Start morning off with massage in massage chair. Go into swim spa and do excercise with propulsion jets on. Cross over into hot tub and relax with waterfalls and watching the birds fly by. Evening: Go into swimspa with glass of wine, waterfalls and swimspa colorful lights on. Listen to the birds and frogs. Seems like a good idea. We are enjoying ours. It is above ground and we have a fabulous view while we are relaxing in it.

I do have a pool and rarely wear a swimsuit - skinny dipping all the way. I'd go skinny dipping in the neighborhood pools if I thought I could get away with it. I love my pool!!

Also, regarding all the pools in The Villages, how would I find out the maximum depth of each.

When T&D did ours at the time of build, they said 5 1/2 feet was the norm for the deep end. We opted for 6 1/2 feet and love it. I think, within reason, you can make it what ever depth you want....3 1/2 feet in the whole pool if you want. It depends on what you are going to use the pool for. I would look at different pools before making a decision. Best of luck. You will love your pool!!

First pool for us and we love it.
Take that first swim and you will be glad you did it and we leave for the summers.
Right now its a water feature and we enjoy it as much.

What is the range to put a new pool in?

[shcisamax]

That is a tough question to answer because it depends upon so many variables. Is it a standard birdcage or with columns which add significantly to the cost? How big is the pool? I believe they charge by the length rather than the width although I am not sure. Will there be a spa/hot tub? Will there be a summer kitchen? With there be pavers or the standard cement with the coating? If you can give a better indication of what you are thinking, people may be able to come up with a range.
