How I'd love a pool here at Two Acre Wood - but it wasn't in the cards cost
and space-wise.  We are lucky though to have a very nice public pool in the
park a few blocks away.  Valley Oaks village in Chico, CA has a wonderful
pool.  Don't know if any of them are on this list, but you might contact
them directly.

We considered having a community hot tub, but then discovered the health
dept. regulations for a public tub with inspections and all.  so instead,
there are a couple of private ones in three backyards.  Their owners share
generously.  Also, several of us have big bath tubs with jets - yum!
