What is a Pool Pergola?

A Pool Pergola is a structure that creates a sheltered area near a swimming pool.  Construction is from vertical posts supporting cross beams, rafters or open lattice.  A Pool Pergola adds character to the area and creates a zone that clearly defines it from the home and other garden areas.  A freestanding Pergola can also be known as a Gazebo. Find out more about the different kinds of Pergolas.
