Pool/Spa Area Rules
Pool fence gates to pool deck area need to remain closed and locked when not in use- please check frequently.
Please shower and remove all sand prior to entering pool.
No glass is permitted in pool deck area.
Children under 12 need adult supervision at all times.
All non-toilet trained children must wear swim diapers at all times.
No pets, food, diving, or horseplay are allowed in pool.
Please be advised that pool area is slippery when wet so we discourage running in pool area.
Do not walk on rocks or in planting beds.
Swim and walk in pool area at your own risk.
The pool is heated for your comfort. Do not adjust settings on pool heater. Generally speaking, the Winter months are considered from November through April. During these months OWNER does his best to ensure that the pool is heated to a temperature of at least 82 degrees. However, please be aware that our area occasionally gets cold spells that can send the temperatures down into the 30's for a few nights in a row. This will cause the pool water temperature to drop down to in the 70's and a pool pump will automatically shut down if the outside temperature gets too cold-at day or night. The pump will then kick back on in the Morning (as long the temp. is not below 70) and begin re-heating of the pool back to 82, which may take several hours or days depending on the severity of the cold spell. Ultimately, these situations are beyond OWNER'S control. Due to the strict 10pm noise ordinance, the pool heaters will not run overnight. OWNER closely monitors the pool and it's temperature. Please allow weekly pool maintenance staff to perform duties while on site - usually each Thursday. Misuse of a pool by the spilling of foreign substances into the pool, i.e. soap, shampoo, oils, glass or metal will result in a Service Call Charge at the sole discretion of OWNER. Violation of this provision shall be grounds for expedited eviction and forfeiture of all monies paid.
Pool “Baby Fence” is provided for young children’s safety, we cannot be held responsible for any injury that occurs if they are tampered with or removed. It is GUEST'S responsibility to check before using the pool if it has been installed properly before using the pool area.
When using the Spa, remember there is a certain health risk associated with this facility. RULES: Use at your own risk. Do not put any foreign substance like soap in the water. A SPA is not a hot tub, it is simply a section of the heated pool that provides warm bubbles for comfort and relaxation but will not get hot (above 100 F). If you want to use the SPA you have to push the "SPA PARTY" Button and wait 40 to 45 Minutes until it is warm. During that time the pool will not be heated.
