🔥 About the Pool Heater:

> Please make sure to let us know if you'd like the pool heating at least 24-48hrs prior to check-in. Pool heating has a fee. Please ask us what the fee before booking if interested in pool heat. Pool heating fee changes according to propane costs.

Things to note:

>The pool is not as hot as a hot tub — it’s designed for comfortable swimming temperatures (typically 80s°F), not soaking temps. We do have a separate private hot tub for your use.

>The outside air temperature and overnight lows play a big role in how warm the pool feels. On chilly or windy days, the water may lose heat faster than the heater can replace it.

>Heating works best when the air temperature is above 50°F, though the heater will still operate in cooler weather — it just takes longer to reach temperature and it may also feel chillier depending on outside weather.

>💧 Important Note: Once the heater has been turned on for your stay, the heating fee is non-refundable, even if the pool does not reach a specific temperature, as this depends on external weather conditions. Reason being- it's already been running and spending gas to warm up the pool.

Thank you for your understanding — this helps us ensure the best possible experience for you and our future guests!
