Before arrival, agree on supervision, confirm pool rules and water entry, and leave time for meals, dry clothes and breaks. Plan a real alternative for anyone who does not want to swim.
Photos show Pool House Lodge and visits shared in its guides. They illustrate planning questions, not measurements or a guarantee of suitability.
Confirm details before packing
Ask about depth, temperature, water entry and included towels or equipment. Save the host’s contact and instructions for reporting a pool or door problem. Pool House Lodge’s private pool is 15×28 ft, approximately 4–6 ft deep and heated to 82–84°F. Guests may use it anytime during the booked stay; there are no pool hours. Posted rules and supervision still apply.
Organize the first swim
Read the posted instructions. Identify entry steps, depth markings, rescue equipment and emergency information. Name the adult actively watching children in the pool room and hand responsibility directly to another adult before taking a break. There is no lifeguard at the lodge. Its self-closing, auto-locking doors use code access and it has a motorized cover; follow posted operating instructions. Keep food and glass out of pool and hot-tub areas.
Separate deck access from water entry
The lodge pool is downstairs. Step-free travel between main and lower floors uses exterior ramps. There is no pool lift. Review water entry separately from the route to the deck with the person who will use it.
Build a flexible swim day
After breakfast, choose a swim or one suitable outing. Dry off and eat in a permitted dining area, then leave time to rest. Offer an afternoon swim or alternative, confirming supervision again. Evening availability does not remove the rules. Pack swimwear, dry clothes, a wet-item bag and essential personal equipment after confirming permitted use.
Plan the other amenities separately
The hot tub and four-person barrel sauna are on the lower patio. The sauna is not wheelchair accessible; it offers dry heat or steam created by pouring water onto the stones. Follow posted instructions. Indoor games include pool, foosball, arcade, board games and puzzles. Cornhole and disc golf are outdoors, so they are not indoor rain plans.
