Swimming Pool, Hardscape Patio, Retaining Walls

This backyard project combines a custom heated swimming pool with a hardscape patio and retaining walls to create a practical, multi-level outdoor living space. The heated pool extends the usable season, while the surrounding patio provides room for lounging, entertaining and moving comfortably around the water.

Retaining walls help define the grade and organize the surrounding landscape, allowing the pool and hardscape to feel integrated into the property rather than added on separately. This kind of coordinated pool and hardscape construction reflects Rhine’s outdoor living work throughout Howard County and nearby Maryland communities.
