Pools designed for every section of Vintage Oaks.
Vintage Oaks is one of the largest master-planned communities in the Hill Country, with a resort-style amenity village, golf, and lot sizes ranging from cottage-style to full acreage. We've built pools across the community's many sections.
Every Vintage Oaks pool we build is engineered to its exact lot, approved through the POA's architectural review, and finished in durable PebbleTec — sized to complement the community's own amenities, not compete with them.
Built by two brothers and career firefighters, J. Oliver Pools brings the same accountability to every Vintage Oaks project. Entry custom pools here start around $60,000, with signature builds between $75,000 and $150,000.

Vintage Oaks is unusual among Hill Country communities in just how much its sections differ from one another, so the first real question in any project here isn't finish or feature — it's which part of the neighborhood you're in, and what that section's lots and covenants actually allow.
One of the Hill Country's largest amenity communities.
Vintage Oaks stretches along the Highway 46 corridor between New Braunfels and Bulverde, and it has grown into one of the largest master-planned communities anywhere in the Hill Country. Its centerpiece amenity village includes a resort-style pool complex, a golf course, tennis and pickleball courts, and a fitness center — the kind of on-site infrastructure most subdivisions can't match.
With that much already available on-site, we find Vintage Oaks homeowners often want something different from their private pool than a typical resort build — a more intimate plunge pool, a compact freeform shape with a spa, or a smaller geometric pool that's easy to maintain and use daily, reserving the community amenities for larger gatherings.
Because Vintage Oaks spans everything from cottage-style sections to homesites over an acre, lot size and setback rules vary meaningfully across the community. A pool that fits comfortably in one section might need a completely different footprint two streets over — we design to your specific section and surveyed lot rather than a single neighborhood template.
Vintage Oaks' property owners' association runs a formal architectural review process, and given how large the community is, submittal volume can slow turnaround during busy building seasons. We prepare complete packages up front and stay in direct contact with the review committee so your project doesn't lose time sitting in a queue.
With golf, tennis, and a resort-style pool complex already drawing residents outdoors, we've noticed Vintage Oaks homeowners lean toward pools that are easy to maintain and quick to open on a whim — simpler geometric shapes, robust automation, and low-maintenance PebbleTec finishes — rather than high-touch water features that need constant attention alongside an already busy amenity calendar.
The acreage sections toward the community's edges bring a different set of considerations — more usable yard space, sometimes well water, and often a longer driveway or access route that affects how equipment reaches the backyard during construction. We scope site access on every Vintage Oaks project during the first walkthrough so the construction schedule accounts for it from day one.
Given how much of Vintage Oaks' appeal rests on its amenities, a private pool here is often viewed by buyers as a nice-to-have rather than a must-have — which means the ones that add real resale value tend to be well-designed, low-maintenance, and clearly professionally built rather than an overbuilt project competing with the community's own facilities.

From first sketch to first swim in Vintage Oaks.
Site visit and survey. We confirm which section of Vintage Oaks your lot sits in first, since setbacks and lot size vary so much community-wide, then survey grade and access before sketching a design.
Design and POA submittal. We prepare the complete architectural review package the POA expects, and stay in direct contact with the committee to keep your project moving even during high-volume submittal seasons.
Permitting and construction. With approval and permits in hand, excavation, gunite, decking, and finish work proceed on a schedule matched to your specific lot's access and size.
Startup and first swim. We balance water chemistry, walk you through low-maintenance automation built for a busy amenity-village lifestyle, and remain available for service well beyond closeout.
Building here, answered.
Is there a pool builder near me in Vintage Oaks?+
Yes. J. Oliver Pools builds throughout New Braunfels, and Vintage Oaks is one of the neighborhoods we work in regularly, so a search for a pool builder near you here reaches a local, family-operated crew rather than a national franchise dispatching subcontractors. We design, permit, engineer, and build with our own team, and we handle the New Braunfels permitting and HOA submittals ourselves. Before we quote anything we walk your lot to check access, grade, drainage, and rock. Call 830-244-7665 or text 830-358-2499 to book a site visit.
What lot sizes does Vintage Oaks have for a pool?+
Vintage Oaks spans a wide range — from smaller cottage-style sections to homesites over an acre — so pool sizing varies more here than in most communities. We design to your specific section and lot, not a one-size template.
Does Vintage Oaks require HOA approval for a pool?+
Yes. Vintage Oaks' POA reviews pool, fence, and decking plans through its architectural review process. We prepare and submit the full package on your behalf.
How does Vintage Oaks' amenity village affect pool design?+
With a resort-style amenity center, golf, and fitness already on-site, many Vintage Oaks homeowners want a more intimate private pool — a plunge pool, spa, or compact freeform design — rather than a large resort build.
How much does a custom pool cost in Vintage Oaks?+
Entry custom pools in Vintage Oaks typically start around $60,000, with signature builds — spa, water feature, lighting, automation — running $75,000–$150,000; larger acreage sections run higher.
How long does it take to build a pool in Vintage Oaks?+
After HOA approval and Comal County permitting, construction typically takes ten to twelve weeks depending on size, features, and access.
Why do so many Vintage Oaks homeowners choose a smaller pool design?+
With a resort-style amenity village, golf course, and fitness center already on-site, many homeowners here want a more intimate private pool — a plunge pool or compact freeform design — rather than duplicating what the community already offers.
Does my section of Vintage Oaks affect what pool I can build?+
Significantly. Lot sizes range from cottage-style sections to full acreage homesites, and setback rules can differ by section. We always design to your specific surveyed lot rather than a single community-wide template.
Does Vintage Oaks' size slow down HOA approval?+
It can during busy building seasons, simply due to submittal volume. We prepare complete packages and stay in direct contact with the POA's review committee to keep your project moving.
