No. 37 Pools · Mountain & Cabin
Rectangular Pool with Raised Spa Spillover
Beside a mountain home built with timber and stone, a flagstone patio surrounds a rectangular pool and raised spa with a spillover overlooking surrounding pines and a distant mountain view.
Design notes
Mountain pools trade ornament for view. Look for a rectangular or vanishing-edge pool aimed at the peaks, decks of ipe or dark composite, stacked-stone walls and boulders at the edge, a hot tub and fire pit within a few steps, and planting of pines, aspens and grasses. Dark plaster and warm lighting make the water glow on cold evenings.
What to look for
- The coping — how the deck meets the water sets the whole tone
- Where the spa sits and how it spills into the pool
- Night lighting: which features glow and which stay dark
