About the pool

Even in the middle of these hot Texas summers, our ten foot waterfall keeps the pool temps between 87-89 degrees. Our venue offers a relaxing, quiet oasis, in a private setting. Perfect for a couple's retreat, small family get togethers or gatherings with friends. No large parties. Cool off in the classic roman style pool or soak up some sun on the loungers. The Retreat is a great place to chill. We feature a swim-in grotto with a day bed in a private covered space. Cool off under the ten foot waterfall or enjoy the relaxing sound of rain drops falling in the grotto entrance. The Retreat is a day spa experience like no other. Amenities include the use of a BBQ grill and covered bar area that seats 6-8 persons. Ample covered area and seating to get out of the sun. Enjoy your genre of music over the music system. A private restroom is available. Serenity awaits! For an additional charge, hit a few balls on our golf putting green and driving range. Book our cantina for an air conditioned space, or pamper yourself by scheduling a massage with our professional therapist.
