Tips for Creating a Cozy Winter Wonderland

Thursday, December 16th, 2021

Is there anything more magical than the wintertime in South Dakota? We adore the fluffy snow, festive holiday decorations, and bright twinkle lights that give everything a cozy glow. However, when the temperatures drop to the low teens, the general consensus around here is that these beautiful days are best enjoyed from the comfort of our warm homes.

If you have a hot tub, you’re in the unique position to bring the warmth of the indoors to your outdoor space. Here are a few tips to help you turn your deck into a cozy winter wonderland!

Reduce, Reuse, Redecorate

The “winter wonderland aesthetic” is all about soft colors, such as white, light grey, and charcoal, natural greenery, pinecones, candles, and glitter. To achieve this look in the most economical way possible, we recommend purchasing items that can be reused in future decorating projects. Try purchasing a basic, grey side table and then wrapping a few strands of pine garlands around the legs. When the wintertime is over, you can unwrap the garlands and switch them out for ones covered in brightly-colored flowers. Purchasing items that will work for multiple seasons and styles is a great way to save money for your holiday shopping fund!

Invest in a Projector

If you’re a movie-buff, purchasing an outdoor projector to spice up your hot tub area is an absolute must. For a few hundred dollars, you can get a high-quality projector that can remain up even during harsh weather. Simply slip on your bathing suit, grab a mug of hot cocoa with extra marshmallows, flip on your favorite holiday movie, and hop into the bubbling water of your hot tub. If you’re not in the mood for a movie, you can also turn on a recording of a crackling fireplace, set to the soothing sounds of jazz. In our opinion, that’s a recipe for the world’s most perfect night-in.

Turn Up the Hygge

Over the past few years, the Danish design ideology “hygge” has picked up an enormous amount of popularity among people from across the world. It refers to the art of decorating your home in a cozy, comfortable way, and a few hallmarks include flickering candles, soft blankets, and fuzzy rugs. A great way to turn your deck into a gathering space that exudes warmth is to incorporate a few hygge elements:

  • Purchase a handful of patio candles and scatter them throughout your space
  • Give your space a heavenly glow with the help of outdoor string lighting
  • Deck out your seating area with fluffy, fur-lined blankets. Just make sure to bring them inside when you’re done for the night

Embrace the Magic of Wintertime

We hope that you have fun turning your outdoor space into a winter wonderland! If you don’t already own a personal spa but you’d like to change that, make sure to contact us today. A hot tub truly transforms your winter into a magical time of rest and relaxation!

A Spooky Hot Tub Halloween

Monday, October 25th, 2021

With Halloween just around the corner, it’s time to start picking out a costume, decorating your house with fake spider webs, and planning a spooky get-together for you and your friends. If you’re lucky enough to own a personal spa, this is the perfect time to incorporate it into a night filled with delicious snacks, great conversation, and a scary story or two. Here are a few tips to help you throw the party of the year!

 

Turn on the Mood Lights 

An easy way to add a creepy glow to your outdoor space is to switch on your hot tub’s mood lights. Try turning the lights to red so that the water has a blood-like appearance. If you’d like to go all out, try scattering plastic bones and fake body parts around the outside of your hot tub. Another option is to switch the lights to green and create a space that resembles a radioactive, toxic spill. You can add another layer to the illusion by purchasing or DIYing a sign that says “Warning: Toxic Spill Ahead!” 

 

Scary Delicious Treats 

In honor of Halloween, try whipping up a few snacks that are as spooky as they are tasty. A few great choices include cookies decorated with bats and ghosts, blood-red fruit punch, candy apples, deviled eggs, and stuffed orange peppers carved to resemble jack-o’-lanterns. If you’re short on time, you can always keep it simple and set up a few bowls of everyone’s favorite candy. Twizzlers, Candy Corn, Snickers, Skittles, and Reese’s are always hits. 

 

Brush Up on a Few Scary Stories 

Once everyone has served themselves a plate of delicious food and is comfortably settled into your hot tub, get the party started with a few scary stories! Go ahead and invite your friends to tell their favorite, spine-chilling tales. Just to be safe, it’s a good idea to prepare a few stories ahead of time on the off chance that your guests draw a blank. If you’re looking for inspiration, make sure to check out this helpful article from Reader’s Digest: 13 Best Ghost Stories for Your Next Sleepover. It features 13 stories that are short, interesting, and most importantly, terrifying. 

 

Do You Like Scary Movies? 

Try setting up a projector or TV so that you and your friends can watch your favorite flick together. During the set-up process, just make sure to put a few feet of distance between any electrical cords and your hot tub. Water and electricity definitely don’t mix! If you’re stumped on which movie to select, here are a few crowd-pleasers to consider:

 

  • The Conjuring 
  • Final Destination 
  • The Shining 
  • Paranormal Activity 
  • A Nightmare on Elm Street
  • Friday the 13th 
  • Insidious 
  • Poltergeist 

 

Have a Magical Halloween 

From everyone at Combined Pool & Spa, we hope that you have a wonderful, joy-filled All Hallows’ Eve! We also hope you enjoyed these fun tips for creating the perfect hot tub Halloween. If you don’t already own a personal spa but you’d like to change that, please reach out to us today and we’d be happy to match you with the model that best suits your unique style and needs. It’s time to treat yourself!

Summer Staycation in Your Backyard

Wednesday, July 21st, 2021

While trips to white-sand beaches and exotic cities are always nice, having a staycation can be just as much fun if you have a hot tub! This summer, save money—and the stress of traveling—with these tips to turn your outdoor space into your own personal resort!

 

Outdoor Movie Night

What’s better than an outdoor movie night? An outdoor movie night with a hot tub, of course! The next time you want to have a fun night with your family and friends, bring a TV or projector out to your deck and hook it up. Just make sure it’s far enough from the hot tub that any stray splashes won’t interfere with the outlet. Now, you’ve got yourself the perfect home theater that you and your favorite people can enjoy under the stars.

 

Break Out the Grill

Treat everyone to a delicious meal by setting up your grill and cooking some mouthwatering hot dogs, burgers, and steaks. Don’t forget the sides! The perfect summer meal includes dishes like mac & cheese, baked beans, grilled corn, fruit salad, and coleslaw. If you’re not much of a chef or don’t feel like doing the heavy lifting yourself, you can always host a potluck and ask your guests to bring their favorite dishes.

 

Spend a Day at the Spa

Your hot tub is the perfect place to enjoy a little “me time.” Give yourself an at-home spa day by kicking back while the jets massage your aches and pains away. The steamy, bubbling water will relax your body and mind, and make you feel refreshed. If you want to kick it up a notch, try a face mask to give your skin a healthy glow. (Just don’t rinse it off in the hot tub!)

 

A Family-Friendly Happy Hour

After a long day, a tropical drink is exactly what you need to feel energized. Here are some of our favorite alcohol-free options that will make you feel like you’re relaxing on the beach:

 

  • Tropical Mocktail: This sweet, blended drink features an invigorating mix of mango, coconut, and pineapple.
  • Virgin Hurricane: A combination of passion fruit, pineapple, lemon, and orange juice that feels like a cool, summer breeze.
  • Tropical Sunshine: Sprite, grenadine, and pineapple juice make this a favorite drink for hot summer days.

 

Have The Summer of Your Dreams

When you own a hot tub, you’ve already got the key ingredient for an amazing summer. If you don’t already have one, contact us today to learn more about our large selection of state-of-the-art home spas!

Hot Tub Entertainment For Your Family

Tuesday, June 29th, 2021

Now more than ever, there is no better way to spend time with your family than soaking in a hot tub and/or pool right outside your back door! Enjoyable for any age, an at-home spa offers you a chance to “getaway” with your loved ones and enjoy one another’s company. Combined Pool & Spa is here to help you create the most fun and entertaining experience for your family, so here are some of our favorite activities to do when spending time together in our tubs.

 

Floating Board Game

Chess, checkers and tic-tac toe are all games that are available on a floating board. You can set the game in the middle of your hot tub and everyone will be able to enjoy some friendly competition. The best part? The game and pieces are waterproof so they will last for many rivalries to come.

 

Waterproof Cards

Card games are always a good option for a larger family and a water-resistant deck is all you need. Start a game of Go Fish or Crazy 8 right inside the swirling spa waters. Perfect for hours of outdoor fun, the cards will provide even the largest families a game to all participate in.

 

Dodgeball

All you need for this family friendly game are five ping pong balls. After dropping them into the jet-filled water, you and your children will have to try and prevent the balls from touching you. Whoever gets touched first, they are now out, and the game continues on.

 

Who Am I?

For this game, you don’t need anything other than a group of your family members. One person starts by thinking of a person in the room, a celebrity, or another random individual. Each person goes around and gets to ask a yes or no question to lead the group towards figuring out who the person is thinking of. First to guess, wins, and gets to think of the next round.

 

…And Don’t Forget these Added Entertainment Features!

No matter which pool & spa activities match your family’s style, make the most of your backyard experience with our Patio and Game Room products by adding Deep Seating, Outdoor Seating, Fire accessories and seating or Foosball, Pool, Ping Pong Tables and more!

There are so many games that the whole family can enjoy! Plus, many others that you can create yourself. The fun never stops in our hot tubs. Call us or visit our showroom today to take a look at our hot tubs and all the activities every age can enjoy!
