The unique quality of each individual part of this concrete pool contributes to the one-of-a-kind nature of the whole project. A team of Natural Design s expert rock sculptors shaped each rock to be different from the next.
The swimming hole, as the builder calls it, was built into an almost flat, open area using earth from the excavation to re-contour and landscape behind the 7-foot-high waterfalls. It includes 500 square feet of hand-sculpted flagstone that spread out in front of the two beach entries. In addition, one beach has underwater benches and an island rock.
For guests who are more interested in being active, the pool features a swim lane of 35 feet and the builders strategically formed some of the rock for diving. The landscape is complete with hardy and indigenous plants that beautifully accent the pool.
