About the pool
Now open at 6 AM! Due to late afternoon monsoon storms, we have adjusted our hours!
💦Welcome to Once Upon a Pool, where summertime leisure, celebrations, and joyful memories are made. Treat yourself to a blissful escape - whether it be by yourself, a romantic escapade for two, a family retreat, a photo shoot, or with a group of friends or associates - and enjoy all the amenities found here in this private oasis that awaits you.
🐶At Tucson’s historic and impeccably maintained home, aptly named ‘Ranchita Conn Vista’, we're proud to offer the most enjoyable pool experience in east Tucson for the entire family, including the family dog! Only 20 minutes from the other side of town to reach your destination for instant gratification.
⛱️You'll find everything you need for the perfect pool day or evening swim. Bluetooth speakers to enjoy your favorite tunes, a large variety of pool floats, pool basketball, water balloons, shaded & sunny areas, comfortable chairs & loungers, and ambiance lighting, ensure your comfort and enjoyment. We also offer yard games set up in the lush grassy backyard area for your enjoyment. Once Upon A Pool promises an unforgettable experience and will cater and customize according to your needs, ensuring that wonderfully unique experience you want and deserve.
🍔🥂Beyond the pool and backyard amenities, we offer an additional 12-seat dining area on the upper terrace with a barbecue grill and comfortable seating area to enhance your stay. Enjoy a delicious meal and a relaxing glass of wine amongst candles and music of your choice to cap off the day. 🌙 IF YOU'RE CONSIDERING DINING & BARBECUING PAST 4 PM, PLEASE MESSAGE me to open that time for you, as we'd be happy to do that if no monsoon storm is forecast for that time.
