A pool for cooling off

The pool has a shallow beach entry. It slopes in from nothing, so a dog can walk in as far as they want, stand where they can still touch the bottom, and walk back out on their own. No steps, no lifting, nothing to climb.

Book it by the hour. It is private, fully fenced, and yours for the whole slot. Bring one dog or bring the whole household.

Most dogs who come here are not athletes. They are hot, they like water, and an hour in a quiet pool with nobody else around is the best afternoon they will have all week.

Booking an hour

Booking happens in our online portal. Pick the reservation category other, choose the swim pool, and pick your hour.

What you send is a request, not an instant confirmation. We approve it ourselves and you will hear back within one business day. Nothing is held until we confirm it, so please do not drive out on an unapproved request.

The portal will ask you to set up an account the first time. If you would rather not, or you have a question first, call 519-542-0070.

Questions

Before you come out

Anything not answered here, call 519-542-0070.

Can my dog dock dive here?

Not in this pool. Dock diving happens in a separate pool with its own dock, and it has its own page.

Does my dog need to know how to swim?

No. The beach entry means a dog can stand in shallow water and never go out of their depth if they do not want to.

Do I have to be a daycare or boarding client?

No. The pool is open to the public.

How many dogs can I bring?

Four or five, depending on their size. Tell us how many when you book and we will confirm.

Can I get in with my dog?

You can stand at the shallow end and get your feet wet. People do not swim, jump or dive in this pool.

Is someone watching my dogs?

No. It is an unsupervised rental and your dogs stay your responsibility for the whole hour.
