We’re thrilled to share some exciting news about the Serenity Pool Lounge! As we enter this new chapter of our lives, we’ve decided to transform the pool into a free, social, non-commercial space for the people who mean the most to us.
From now on, no one will have to pay to use the pool. Instead, it will be open exclusively to friends, family, and past guests who’ve enjoyed their time here, and, of course, new friends who want to connect with our family and spend time in a warm, welcoming environment.
We also want to thank the staff at the City of Sault Ste Marie for their professionalism and flexibility, as they graciously explained to us that, although we were more than welcome to operate a home based business, we would have to perform a few steps to get the stamp of approval on such a big pool (little pools are okay, but big ones not so much!).
Of course, all of that would involve a long process of surveys, drawings, legal fees, etc. That just didn’t make a lot of sense, after all, we never opened the pool to make lots of money, we opened it to make people happy, and that’s what we’re going to keep doing, for free.
Beyond legal red tape, this decision reflects what matters most to us: building connections and cherishing time with the people around us, especially as we celebrate our newest family member, little Alexander, who has brought us so much joy! We’re so excited to enjoy this beautiful space with all of you and share in the joy of making memories together. Whether it’s family outings, casual hangouts, or just a relaxing dip, we’re here to create something special.
If you’d like to stop by for a swim and hang out, just reach out to us on Facebook, or send us a text if you already have one of our numbers. Please note that there will be no commercial sales activity of any kind, which means that you don’t have to pay or book on the Swimply app, nor will concessions and snacks be available for purchase.
Before everyone comes rushing to our door at the same time, please understand that social gatherings should be just that: social! Consequently, reach out to us, talk to us, and make plans with us if your family wants to hang out with our family.
We can’t wait to see you at the Serenity Pool Lounge, where the water is warm, and the vibes are always friendly. Much love, Ryan, Tracy, and Alexander.
