Pool Heating FAQs:
Pool heat is available October–May for $150/day and June–September for $100/day, with a target temperature of 82–85°F, as long as air temperatures remain above 35°F.

A few important details to be aware of:
**Pool heat must be requested at least 48 hours prior to arrival so it’s ready for your stay.
**The pool must be heated for the entire reservation. We’re unable to heat for select days, as the heater must be turned on prior to arrival and it takes approximately 24 hours to bring the pool up to temperature. For this reason, pool heat is charged per night for the full stay, even if you plan to swim only on certain days.
**This is a heated pool, not a hot tub (though we do have a hot tub if you’re looking for truly hot water).

Winter Weather Note (Please Read Carefully):
**During winter, the pool is equipped with freeze protection. When air temperatures drop below 35°F, the heater automatically shuts off and the pool will cool. The longer the heater is off, the more the water temperature will drop—and the longer it will take to reheat once temperatures rise again. The pool will not begin heating again until the air temperature rises above 35°F, and in colder conditions it may take most or all of the day to reach the target temperature. In these conditions, the pool will not maintain the target temperature of 82–85°F. As a result, there may be only a short window of comfortable swimming, even though the full heating fee still applies.
**Pool heating during colder months is highly weather dependent, and in some cases, heating the pool during this time may simply not be worthwhile.
**In our experience, a heated pool in winter is usually more of a novelty for kids—our own kids will happily jump in even on chilly days. While 85°F sounds warm, that temperature refers to the water and is often not as warm as it sounds, especially once you’re out of the pool. When air temperatures are below 50°F, most adults tend to prefer the hot tub, which provides a much more comfortable and enjoyable experience.

Pool is professionally cleaned weekly, Guests will have access to skimmer and robot vacuum for additional cleaning.
