3 Must-Have Additions With Custom Pools

Nothing says summer quite like a backyard pool, the perfect place to get in some R&R and fun in the sun. 

BBQs with friends and family every day? Check! 

Endless opportunities for kids splashing around? Definitely check – plus so much more! 

But if you're really looking to create a backyard dreamscape, what really takes things up a notch is adding custom features in and around your swimming pool that are easy to personalize to suit all of your wants and needs.

In today’s blog post, we’re going to explore three must-have additions that are sure to make your custom in-ground pool installation feel like the most dreamy backyard escape, right at home. Let’s dive right in!

Addition #1: A Tanning Ledge

Tanning ledges are innovative additions to swimming pools that allow you to sit just below the edge of the water to keep cool without having to swim or float. They can be anywhere from just a couple feet deep, which makes it perfect for families with little ones, up to over one foot deep–perfect for those who want more than lounging on floats but don’t have enough space near their desired depth.

Addition #2: Fire Bowls

These features are a terrific addition that take your ambiance to the next level. Not only do fire bowls add the perfect touch of elegance and glow at night, but they provide that extra bit of warmth on cool fall and winter evenings, allowing homeowners to enjoy their backyard paradise year-round.

Addition #3: Water Features and Fountains

A pool with water features is a beautiful mix of relaxation and playtime. These small additions provide hours upon hours of enjoyment when they’re placed around the pool deck or near seating areas to gather around. 

In addition, they can add to your pool’s landscaping or create a focal point in an outdoor living space, making them perfect for entertaining guests at pool parties!

Custom pools that feature additions like waterfalls, fountains, and fire bowls truly take your backyard oasis from good to great.
