Pool Season & Heating Info
Our pool season usually runs from April through October, but the water temperature always depends on the weather.
July 1 – August 31:
The pool heater (a “heat pump”) is set to 84°F.
On most days, it can raise the water temp about 10–15° above the outdoor air temperature.
Since it works by pulling heat from the air, cool nights or chilly days can keep it from reaching the full 84°.
Remember: the “average temperature” is based on both day and night temps.
Before July 1 & After Sept 1:
The water temperature will vary more with the weather and is unlikely to reach any higher than the average (day/night) air temp.
Even if the heater is on (at the owner’s discretion), it may not always feel “swimmable” to everyone.
Other things to know:
The pool is large (30,000 gallons), so it can take a couple of sunny, 80°+ days to warm back up after cooler weather.
The heater only runs during the daytime.
Setting the thermostat higher than 84° won’t heat the water faster—it just makes the system keep trying, even if the weather won’t allow it.
We don’t use gas heaters because they cost about $10/hour to run (one weekend once used a $600 tank). The heat pump is the most sustainable and fair option for everyone.
In summary: We can’t guarantee an exact water temperature, but we’re always hoping for blue skies and perfect swimming weather for your stay! If the pool isn’t swimmable during your visit, we hope you’ll still enjoy everything else the home and the Hudson Valley have to offer.
Guest Access:
The house is very private and you have the entire property to yourself. The only people who might come by are maintenance staff for essential tasks like mowing the lawn or cleaning the pool and we will do our best to arrange this at the most convenient time for you.
Early check-ins and late check-outs are complimentary provided there are no prior bookings on your dates. Confirmation for these can only be given the evening before after 7pm of your stay, so please message me if interested after that time. If your travel plans hinge on early check-in or late check-out, it's advisable to book an extra night to guarantee availability, potentially at a reduced rate.
Please note, if we do grant a free early check-in or late check-out, we reserve the right to accept last-minute bookings that may require you to revert to the standard check-in/check-out times listed. You will be promptly notified in such cases, so please be prepared to check out from the standard checkout time onwards..
