We will be closing our pool soon. After talking to a few people who have a pool similar to us they make special winter covers that goes in the track. Talked to another pool company that sells same pool in another town that said yes you need the special one and usually comes with the pool. My pool company had me purchase a regular before knowing I need a special one. Now plays stupid and said they have never seen one. Sorry for long post.. trying to find out what everyone uses on their optimum pool for winter cover.
Optimum winter cover

Hey DD !! I remember looking them up a while ago for someone and use of anything but their own optimum winter covers voided the ‘lifetime’ (15 year ?) warranty of the liner. They were specifically picky about that. Not saying you can’t. Not saying you shouldn’t. Just saying don’t get caught using a much cheaper alternative. 
Thank you for replying! The other pool company is getting me a price tomorrow when she contacts her distributor. Tried to find something online but the optimum pool says nothing on winter covers. Also will not spend another dime to the pool company that sold and installed my pool. Got my pool in June and I have had to already patch by the seam from a tear. Also have no clue other than a pool store to get that special cover.Hey DD !!

The reason I even found it was that the OP was justifying the higher cost optimum by its far superior warranty. But the fine print made you buy all their overpriced extras. And have them manage your chemistry with weekly water tests to their specs. Once everything added up it cost more than the new liner that they’d replace
But I do firmly believe it’s a quality pool and product. I imagine that even if it’s costly, their winter covers would be of equal quality. Maybe you get 3 seasons instead of 1.5.
Email them directly to find who is a local dealer. You can then get their opinion and go from there.
Also, it’s rather rude to be talking about the Cadillac of above/semi inground pools without any pics. Just sayin.

Not sure where I can find email. If you go to the site no way to contact them. We live on a hill so that was are only option for above ground. Land is so uneven.
