The trees are green. You’re wearing shorts and sandals. It must be summer, and that means it’s time to enjoy the pool! Whether it’s an in-ground—maybe with a sun shelf—or an above-ground pool and deck, Highwood USA can transform poolside lounging into the best staycation ever.

There are so many things to have handy when you’re going into the water: goggles, swim caps, nose- or ear plugs, waterproof cameras and watches, not to mention sunscreen, phones, speakers, drinks, and more. Give your accessories a home base on our Highwood USA side tables, which are perfect for keeping the essentials close by. Choose from a square Adirondack Side Table, a classically shaped Westport Side Table, or the bold lines of an Italica Modern Side Table.

For even more convenience, try our Folding Adirondack Side Table, or the ELK OUTDOORS® Eco-Friendly Essential Folding Side Table, which folds flat and includes a handle for easy transportation. You might even find these side tables so handy, you will want to have a few scattered by the seating around your yard.

The second-best part of having a pool—aside from being in the water—is being out of the water and lounging in the sun. There’s no better way to soak up the warmth than on our Hamilton Folding & Reclining Adirondack Chair. This versatile model features a reclining option that lets you to adjust the angle of the chair back, making it easier to sit back and enjoy! These folding recliners are perfect for sunbathing or relaxing with friends and family; and they even come in King size, so if you’re big or tall or just want to curl up, you have all the room you need. And when the season is over, the chair folds down for easy storage and transportation.

For the ultimate in luxury—by which we mean no dangling feet—you need an Ottoman. That makes a matching Highwood USA Folding Adirondack Ottoman the perfect accessory.

Of course, you won’t want to leave the pool area if you get hungry, which is why you’ll want a Highwood 5- or 7-piece dining set—like those in the Lehigh, Weatherly and Hamilton collections—at the ready. Not only will you be set for lunch or dinner, but you’ll also have a spot to lay out all-day snacks.

With your dining set, you’ll be prepared for cocktail hours, buffets, and family-style feasts. And of course, you’ll want to liven things up with colorful runners, outdoor tableware and flowery centerpieces as well.

The Beckett Commercial Towel Valet is an essential that will make your pool space rival any spa or fitness center. Have towels for everyone at the ready and eliminate the hassle of picking up after everyone with the easy-access disposal bin, where guests (though maybe not your kids) can deposit towels on their own.

Highwood’s proprietary, high-grade poly lumber is both waterproof and weatherproof. That means your Highwood furniture doesn’t need to be pulled in if the clouds gather. And as an added treat, if your pool has a sun shelf edge, both chairs and side tables can sit in the water all summer long!

So enjoy! With your backyard pool and your Highwood furniture, you’ll want to be outdoors in a perfect staycation that lasts all summer long!
