Adding a swimming pool to the backyard is one of the best ways to encourage everyone to exercise while increasing your home value. According to the CDC, swimming is the number-one activity among kids and teens nationwide. There are a few ways you can increase the appeal of your pool. These ideas will take your pool from boring to beautiful.

Rock Waterfall

Installing a rock waterfall is a common idea that has been trending for years but remains beautiful. Start by hiring a company to install a large rock waterfall with gorgeous lights to illuminate the waterfall at night. Then, have them create a swimming pool at the bottom of the waterfall.

Fun Waterslides

Waterslides can be as basic or as large and elaborate as you would like. A custom pool installer can quickly help you design and install a waterslide to make your pool the best in the neighborhood. Slides can be used in addition to other water features, like a waterfall, for the ultimate backyard experience.

Sheer Descents

Sheer descent waterfalls are similar to rain curtains, but the waterfall is significantly thinner, giving it a sheer appearance. These are great for pools in various sizes and instantly add a stylish appeal. The shimmering sheet creates a soothing sound that instantly transforms your pool into a relaxing retreat.

Rain Curtain

Rain curtains are the modern waterfall. Water flows from a horizontal location that is strategically placed to create a curtain of water. The thin curtain flows seamlessly into the pool, creating an attractive water feature that is easier to install than a waterfall and works well with pools of all sizes.

Additional Spas

Pools inside pools will stay in style and remain a luxurious option for homeowners with large pools. Smaller pools are placed inside larger pools for a personalized spa experience. You can include jets, a small rain curtain, and bubblers for the ultimate appeal.
