Travel restrictions due to the COVID-19 pandemic are putting a damper on many families’ summer vacation plans. To make summer spent at home enjoyable for your household, buy an above- or in-ground pool. For more incentive to take the plunge, below are advantages to having a swimming pool for your staycation. 

3 Perks to Owning a Swimming Pool During Your Staycation

1. Beat the Heat

High temperatures can make the yard too hot for comfort during summer, forcing everyone to stay inside with the AC running. With an above- or in-ground pool, family members won’t get overheated while lounging outside. Staying in the cool water means they will spend more time in the fresh air instead of cooped up indoors. 

2. Stay Fit

With social distancing due to the pandemic, many people won’t jog and hike in parks, swim at local lakes, visit the gym, and perform other activities to remain fit. By doing laps in your private swimming pool, you can adhere to social distancing requirements while aiding heart health, building lean muscle, and keeping off the pounds. 

3. Dine Near the Water

To transform your yard into a tropical oasis, put vibrant flowers and large palms around the above- or in-ground pool. You can enjoy a snack or meal with the family in the yard. Smelling the aromatic vegetation and hearing the sound of the moving water will conjure the feeling of dining poolside at a luxurious resort.
