We are so happy to start swimming in our pool. We could not be happier with Destination Pools/Outdoor Systems, Inc. and will be sure to continue recommending you to our friends and family. Steve was awesome to work with and the entire crew was very friendly-they really made us feel our project was their #1 priority and took pride in their work.

Love the pool and the guys who built the pool, the concrete, Steve B, Megan and Dan F. He was very attentive and hands on! We will have many years of family fun in our pool. We will continue to recommend you all. It was a great experience from the first meeting until the last day you all were on site! Thank you!

I wanted to let you know, that your crews were absolutely great!  They were all super friendly, courteous, personable and professional.  The couple of guys that were on our job on a regular basis were especially amazing.  It was nice to have conversations with them.  We had lots of questions as things went along, and they were always patient with us and always answered us till we understood.  And when things changed throughout, there was never any “huffing and puffing” about it.  They just made the changes/corrections and did what had to be done.  It was a real pleasure watching them work and having they do our pool.  We will definitely recommend you all to anyone we know who is looking for a pool!  We are super happy with it the job.  Can’t wait to spend the summer in our backyard!

I first learned about Destination Pools through the STL Home and Garden Show. I then worked with Steve to create the plan for our pool and he had great suggestions to fit our needs including a Rico Rock waterfall and slide. Dan and team installed the pool with precision. We ran into an issue due to rain (no fault to the company) and they did the right thing and stepped up to fix the problem right away instead of ignoring it. I appreciate a company that stands behind their quality workmanship. After the pool project was complete, Megan promptly answered numerous questions that I had. Their communication and follow-up was impressive. Thank you Destination Pools for going above and beyond for my family’s project.

I did plenty of research before choosing Destination Pools for our backyard job. They literally checked off every "must" on our list and then provided us with some of the best customer service we've ever had. Every person I've ever asked about their pool contractor has said "don't go with mine." I can honestly say you should only go with these guys!

First, we want to thank you for providing us the pool we wanted in the budget we specified. Not only did you build us a beautiful pool that exactly suited our budget and our needs, you gave us exactly what we wanted, plus more, and we did not have to sacrifice one item on our 'wish list'.

You truly exceeded our expectations.

We absolutely LOVE the DE filter and UV light system you recommended, it keeps the water clean, clear, shiny, and easy to maintain. The variable speed pump, DE filter, and chlorinator are very simple to operate for vacuuming and backwashing. I have to admit when the equipment was installed I was a bit intimated but once Jerad took me thru the "equipment and water chemistry 101" I was good to go.

Again, very easy and low maintenance so we have more time to enjoy the pool.

Although the cold wet weather halted our installation at times the work site was kept very organized and clean. Thanks again for taking our dirt and landscaping our privacy berms.

Our family thanks your company for giving us the opportunity to build such a beautiful pool at a price we could afford. It has turned our home into a haven for our friends and family.

Your company has been a pleasure to work with. We are happy to recommend your company to anyone who wants a quality pool at a very fair price.

I can imagine there are quality companies and not-so quality companies in this business. We had a pool installed fall of 2017. In terms of professionalism, communication and expertise, it would be difficult to find somebody as good as Destination Pools. My hats to Dan, Megan and the rest of the team we worked with.   
– Gary F.

Dan, the owner, was very knowledgeable, kind, and explained everything perfectly to us. We went from a company telling us we were going to owe 3K on the low end to spending about a total of $200 with parts and labor. The receptionist was also very sweet! We will use this company from now on!

My husband and I were very pleased with the service we received from Destination Pools. We had a leak in our pool and could not figure out the source. They responded immediately to our frantic plea for help. The guys were professional, pleasant to work with and cleaned up after themselves. We had landscaping close to where they needed to dig, but were sensitive to our desire to keep the bushes if possible. The sonar system used was state of the art and they were relentless in finding the source of the problem. We are very pleased with the service and will continue to call on them in the future.

Dear Dan,

On behalf of Karen and myself we wanted to write a letter to say thank you to you and your company for helping us achieve our vision for our city backyard. As you know, designing and building a pool and spa for a small urban space call be challenging. Not only were you able to come up with a design that worked well in the space, the time and attention that was taken to make sure every detail was handled was admirable. The quality of workmanship and the professionalism of the team certainly shows! Our back yard has now become a neighborhood showcase. Feel free to use our name as a referral.

Thanks again for everything,
Craig
