Who's going to do laps in a pool that's 30ft long? You would get like 6 strokes and have to flip.

I want a pool just to lounge, float around in a margarita induced haze, jump off things into, and bang my g/f in.

These are my idea of a killer pool:


I do prefer the rock look.

I don't know how winter would effect it, I know it's all mostly a concrete base mix, so who knows if it would crack and such from the ice. Not an issue I have to worry about.

Although a more round pool is great for banging, a nice 25yd 4 lane would be dope

Very nice house man

The pond is great as well! Used to have an acre man made pond on our property and to this day I still miss it.

Once your pool is in there isn't much else you could do to make your house better exterior wise!!
