Cowboy Pools - worth it??

Ask Austin

Hi! I recently moved to a small spot on the East side that I love because I can walk everywhere, but I really miss having a community pool for a little dip on these hot days. I’ve tried Barton and resortpass, but just seems like a lot of hassle on days I want a brief dip. I’ve been debating getting a small cowboy pool, but I hear conflicting opinions on ease of maintenance, etc.

So I’d love to hear from people who’ve already taken the plunge! (Pun intended)

Do you regret getting your cowboy pool? Why or why not?
