Backyard Lazy River

Go for a float around the lazy river! The sheers from the bridge aren't functioning correctly yet, but will be soon. The really large waterfall on the left is part of the vanishing edge from the pool.

The pool is about 20k gallons and the lazy river itself is about 30k gallons. We have 2 pumps that can be dialed up or down (2 of the largest Riverflow pumps) to change the speed of the river. I'll post some pics of the entire pool when it warms up a bit. It looks much nicer with the plants in. The spa spills into the pool and the pool has a vanishing edge into the river.

Wow! That is awesome! How many gallons is that and how much did it cost??!

Can't wait for the lanscaping to be put in - that will make it look SO much better!

Looking forward to seeing the finished video. How is the performance with the Riverflow Pumps? Looking into getting my own lazy river. Can you adjust the speed of the river?

Thank you for letting me have the chance to build this pool! If you or anyone has any questions on the pool please feel free to let me know....

Hello (IlovepinceShepiajewels) if this is the owner? I'm the person who built the pool if it is. How are you and you family enjoying it? The River is 200 linear foot of lazy river 6' wide 3' to 4' deep that completely surrounds the pool that its 18" higher. It has a flagstone deck on the upper portion of the swimming pool with a spa and a little negative edge that spills into river. Ran with all Jandy equipment, a&a infloor system, and most importantly two riverflow variable speed pumps.

This is SUPER nice! How much did it cost, how did you find a contractor to do it right and how long did it take?

it looks like you walking around the pool not floating on a tube.!

@IloveLiaSophiajewels Ah, that's pretty large. I bet it must be heaven in the summer. Can't wait to see more pictures of it. You didn't asnwer me about the cost. Probably in the 100's of thousands I imagine.
