Stunning examples of inground pools based on some epic pool designs. Each one of these pools looks like they belong on the cover of Pool Magazine! Definitely stunning examples. I'd love to build a pool like this in my own backyard, but would need to find pool financing first. For my money, there is nothing better than gunite pools. I tried to price a pool like this the other day... came back at around $78,500 for what I want. If like if I ask a pool contractor what it would cost they would tell me around $10,000 more because I didn't account for landscaping.
