Too add to this, I have been looking from the beginning of March. I think there might be more to this than increase demand.

Yes, thanks for the insight. Good idea to buy at closeout end of season. Unfortunately, I don't have many options for local. Especially the specific 15*48 size. I had planned to look around, but I am not hopeful.

We buy an Intex EasySet pool (15*48) each summer for my kiddos (we found that it isn't worth patching the numerous holes after winter storage). Usually the cost is $199-220 through amazon suppliers. This year the EasySet pools are pretty much unavailable, and when you can find a 15*48 the cost...

I want to do something similar (rafters, not true ceiling- hopefully keep cost down). I planned on ceiling fan with light and LED bistro string lights along perimeter etc. Will give a "fun" vibe at night. Beware, they are not cheap.

People are putting these on sunshelfs without issues as well. Correct?

Have you seen the chairs? I'm thinking maybe to do the chairs on the sunshelf and keep the laying on a comfortable chaise on deck.

Err, my budget is no where near 150-200k :oops:. Not many in Arkansas would pay that kind of money for a pool. Although a infinity edge would be pretty with my view etc., I don't want to spend the extra $$, have to fight the pH, and have the kids fall over it:p

Hello TFP. Planning (hoping) to put in a pool starting 1.5-2 years from now. I'm a planner:D We live in central Arkansas on a small mountain, practically solid rock, backyard off existing concrete patio slopes downward. So some sort of retaining system, wall system will be required. I would...

And. Did you ever design/consider a slide in the rock grotto? With kids and all. Too much $$$ I think for myself. It's all ridiculous ??

Oh and what kid of spraydeck is that? Texture, color?

Thank you for the details! Wow and wow! Not sure if I can have a pool up to 25 feet wide. We are building on a slope and the wider the more retaining wall we'll need. I'm happy to see your depth arrangement. It is similar to what I was thinking, including not much gradient. Start at 3.5...

I believe your pool will be my inspiration pool! HA! I have been interested in a jumping grotto scenario. I see you mentioned the 6.5' deep end (that is was I was thinking to do too). How shallow is the shallow end? What are the rough dimensions of the pool itself? I love the spraydeck. I...

Any idea on how long these tend to last without fading etc?

Wow. Very nice looking pool. How deep is your deep end? Will the rocks be for jumping?
