A custom spa is arguably the most valuable outdoor feature you can build on the Waterville Plateau. While the pool season is compressed by the elevation, a properly insulated spa operates comfortably 12 months of the year — including the most spectacular part: soaking in 104°F water on a clear January night with the Cascade Range glowing under starlight.
At Waterville's 2,600-foot elevation, a spa must be engineered for genuine year-round operation in the most demanding conditions in our service area. Our plateau spas use maximum insulation, frost-depth plumbing, high-efficiency heating sized for the elevation, and snow-rated covers that protect the spa through the entire winter.
The plateau's sweeping views of the Cascade Range make winter spa use a genuinely spectacular experience. We position spas to frame the mountain panorama and install subtle lighting that enhances the atmosphere without competing with the natural mountain beauty.
