Mariners Point Pool Rules and Regulations

Below are the updated 2023 pool rules and pool pass policy.

By applying for a pool pass you will be accepting the waiver, which will also be at the sign- in sheet at the pool for your review.

The community pool furniture will be available for use but will not be sanitized by the pool company. You may also bring your own chairs is you so desire.

Please take special care to review all the attached documents so you are aware of all the requirements and protocols in place before you enter the pool.

Anchor Aquatics may experience a shortage of lifeguards again this year. We will make every attempt to notify owners if the pool is closed at any time due to this.

If you have any questions, you can contact me directly at fshockley@tidewaterproperty.com . The Board of Directors thanks you for your understanding with the new rules for the season.

Thank you,
Felicia Shockley, CMCA, AMS
Community Manager
