My family would love to have a pool, but the sticker shock is a bit much for our budget. We are seriously considering a kiddie pool, though. Wouldn't it be cool to just rent a pool whenever you want to take a dip?

Or maybe you have a pool that doesn't get used very often. What if you could make money from your cement pond? I stumbled across a solution for all of that, I just wish that I had thought of it!

Swimply - Like AirBnd for Swimming Pools

Swimply is a fairly new app that works like Airbnb, but you are just renting a residential pool. Most of the private pools are rented by the hour, and the homeowner can set the rules and guidelines. The question of insurance and liability immediately popped into my head. According to Swimply, hosting through their service provides you with a one-million-dollar general liability policy.

Evansville Area Pools on Swimply

Last season I could only find one pool for rent in the Evansville area on Swimply. There are four listed already, so this new trend is catching on.

Suburban Oasis

Ok, host Meggie has an awesome setup for guests. The photos sell this one for me, for sure! And at $20/hour this little oasis will probably book up quickly.

Sunny & Sunset Oasis in South Gibson

This cute pool is located in Ft. Branch, Indiana. Host Jessica is already getting great reviews, and her South Gibson Oasis rents for $30/hour.

Great large backyard with huge inground pool

Host Jacob has a saltwater pool which sounds super fancy to me. This pool is also heated and rents for $48/hour.

Classic pool surrounded nature

Lauren's lovely backyard pool rents for $40/hour, and has some nice amenities. There is a fire pit,  basketball court, and a hot tub.
