About the pool
Our cherished 40 x 20 ft pool is hidden from the street and neighboring homes by trees and bamboo. There is plenty of shade at all times on the pool deck and in the yard (areas of shade change with the time of day). The pool deck features 4 chaise lounges, 3 Adirondack chairs, and a small table with 4 chairs.
For fun, pool volleyball (with an inflatable beach ball) is usually a hit, and we also have corn hole on the grass. The pool slide is only for kids (and people under 150 lbs.). Pool access to the 3-ft-deep shallow end is easy with the stairs and handrail, and if needed we can put a buoyed rope across the pool to delineate the shallow end. Deep end is 8 ft, and a favorite game is tossing then diving for little torpedoes (bring your goggles!).
For relaxing, we have 4 foam cushions for just floating and relaxing in the water, and plenty of grass in addition to the chaise longues for stretching out and sunning.
There is an additional shaded area under our house's deck which can be used for food and drinks because it can get hot at the table on the pool deck. We use the covered old hot tub as a table with colorful Mexican "oilcloth" tablecloths.
