Get Your Pool Backyard Ready for the Holidays: Fire Features, Outdoor Living and a Place to Host

The holidays in Seguin are about gathering.

By Coy Turner

The holidays in Seguin are about gathering. But when the sun goes down and the temperature drops, the backyard starts to feel a little too cold for a long conversation, and the party moves inside.

At Turner Custom Pools, we believe your backyard should be a place you can stay.

We build custom inground pools, and we build the space around them too: fire features, fire pits and outdoor living areas that turn a plain backyard into a warm extension of your home. A fire bowl or a fire pit gives the yard a focal point and a reason to stay outside, even when the winter air turns crisp. That is what makes it a place to host friends and family instead of a place you look at from the kitchen window.

We design these spaces to work with your pool. The layout keeps the outdoor living area connected to the water, so the two feel like one space instead of two. Whether you want to add a fire feature to a pool you already have, or plan a new outdoor living space along with a new pool, we handle the design and the construction.

Questions to Think About Before You Call

Where do your guests naturally end up when they are outside? Do you want the fire to face the pool, the house or both? How many people do you usually host, and how do they get from the kitchen to the backyard? You do not need to have the answers. A few honest guesses are enough to start a design.

Every backyard is different, so what is possible depends on your site, your design choices and how you like to use the space. If you want your backyard ready for the holidays, now is the time to start the conversation. Send us a note through the contact page, tell us about your backyard, your pool and how you like to host, and Coy calls you back within one business day.
