Twin Lakes Pool Reopening May 1, 2026: What Residents Need to Know for the Upcoming Swim Season
For many Twin Lakes residents, the return of pool season marks more than just warmer weather—it signals the start of neighborhood gatherings, family routines, and a shared space to unwind. Beginning Friday, May 1, 2026, the Twin Lakes Pool will officially reopen and remain available through Sunday, November 1, 2026, offering residents months of access to one of the community’s most valued amenities.
This year, the pool will operate as a Swim At Your Own Risk (SAYOR) facility, meaning there will be no lifeguards on duty. While this model allows for extended access and flexibility, it also places a greater emphasis on personal responsibility and adherence to safety guidelines—especially for families with children.
Pool Hours, Schedule, and Weekly Maintenance
The Twin Lakes Pool will be open six days a week from 6:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m., giving residents ample time for early morning laps or evening swims after work.
To maintain water quality and ensure a clean environment, the pool will be closed every Tuesday for deep cleaning and maintenance. This regular upkeep helps preserve the condition of the facility throughout the extended swim season.
Safety Guidelines for Families and Guests
Because the pool operates without lifeguards, safety remains a top priority for the Twin Lakes HOA and residents alike. One of the most important rules to note:
-
Anyone under the age of 16 must be accompanied by an adult age 21 or older at all times while in the pool area.
Additionally, the pool area is equipped with security cameras, and residents should be aware that an alarm will sound if the gate is left open for more than 30 seconds—a measure designed to prevent unauthorized access and ensure the safety of all users.
How to Access the Twin Lakes Pool (FOB System Explained)
Access to the Twin Lakes Pool is managed through a FOB entry system, provided by Crest Management. Each household is eligible for one FOB per family, and residents must complete the necessary steps before entering the pool for the 2026 season.
To request or manage your pool FOB:
- Log into your homeowner portal at crest-management.com
- Order your FOB online
- Choose to have it mailed or schedule a pickup appointment
For in-person pickup, residents can contact Crest Management directly by calling William at 281-945-4602 to schedule an appointment.
2026 Pool Waiver Required for All Residents
Even if you’ve previously signed a waiver, all residents must complete a new 2026 Twin Lakes Pool Waiver before gaining access this season. This requirement ensures that everyone acknowledges the SAYOR policy and agrees to follow the posted pool rules.
The waiver, along with the full list of pool rules, is available online HERE.
Who Can Use the Pool?
The Twin Lakes Pool is funded through HOA dues, making it a shared amenity available to all residents in good standing.
- Residents have full access to the pool
- Non-residents may attend only when accompanied by a resident
This approach helps maintain a balance between accessibility and preserving the quality of the space for the community.
A Neighborhood Space for Relaxation and Connection
With lap lanes for exercise and a wading pool for younger children, the Twin Lakes Pool continues to offer something for every member of the household. It also serves as a popular gathering place during the summer months, where neighbors connect and families create lasting memories.
For those looking to host celebrations, the pool is also available for private parties, with reservations handled through Crest Management.
What This Means for Twin Lakes Residents
As Twin Lakes continues to grow and evolve, maintaining shared amenities like the community pool plays a key role in preserving property value, enhancing quality of life, and fostering neighborhood pride. The structured access system and updated safety policies reflect a continued investment in both convenience and responsibility.
Residents planning to use the pool this season are encouraged to complete their waiver early, secure their FOB access, and review all posted rules to ensure a smooth and enjoyable experience.
