Experience the Tranquility of the River Pool
Welcome to the River Pool, where nature’s beauty reveals itself in intricate detail. This private oasis, known simply as the “River Pool,” captures the serene essence of a mountain river. Picture yourself surrounded by nature—a free-form sanctuary adorned with a stunning waterfall. The waterfall cascades over native granite boulders. Large rocks, crane-set and sourced from the surrounding property, create an atmosphere that feels timeless.
Seamless Design of the River Pool
The River Pool’s 4-foot-tiled vanishing edge seamlessly blends with its environment. It creates the illusion of an endless, clear, blue-green mountain lake. Fiberoptic lighting enhances this natural wonder, illuminating the pool’s splendor by night.
Practical and Beautiful River Pool Design
Designed for both beauty and practicality, this swimming pool features an in-floor cleaning system. This system always ensures pristine waters. Whether enjoying a leisurely swim or relaxing at the swim-up bar, the pool offers a tranquil escape into nature’s embrace.

As you swim in the crystal-clear waters, you’ll feel like you’re in a secluded mountain stream, surrounded by nature’s beauty.
Integration with Nature by Jim Chandler
One of the standout features of the River Pool is its seamless integration with the landscape. The large rocks and boulders were carefully selected and placed to enhance the natural look. These stones, sourced from the property, add visual appeal and create a sense of permanence. Additionally, cascading gently over these boulders, the waterfall adds a soothing sound that enhances overall tranquility. Furthermore, Jim Chandler, the designer and builder, took great care in working with nature and building the pool as if it were always been there.
Vanishing Edge Magic of the River Pool
Another remarkable feature is the river pool’s vanishing edge. This 4-foot-tiled edge creates the illusion of an endless pool, blending seamlessly with the horizon. As a result, the effect is striking at sunset when the pool appears to merge with the sky. It creates a breathtaking view that you’ll never tire of.
Pristine Waters in the River Pool
In addition to its beauty, the River Pool is designed with functionality in mind. The in-floor cleaning system ensures the pool always remains clean and inviting. Combined with BioShield® UV System, oversized cartridge filtration, and Intellichem Automation, this system keeps the water clear and pristine, so you can fully enjoy swimming without constant maintenance.
Enchanting Lighting
Fiberoptic lighting is strategically placed throughout the pool. These lights highlight its features and create a magical atmosphere after dark. They illuminate the water and the landscape, making the River Pool beautiful by night. Whether hosting an evening gathering or enjoying a quiet night by the pool, the lighting adds elegance and charm.
Relax and Unwind
The River Pool is not just a place to swim; it’s a destination for relaxation. The swim-up bar offers a convenient spot to enjoy refreshments without leaving the water. As a result, imagine sipping your favorite drink while seated at the bar, surrounded by the natural beauty of the pool. This feature makes the Pool perfect for social gatherings, family time, or unwinding after a long day.

For those who appreciate fine details, the craftsmanship of the River Pool will not go unnoticed.
