As safety is our upmost priority, we have taken steps to social distance and limit reservations on property. You can view our updated safety protocols at the bottom of this page.
Francis Ford Coppola wanted to create a place for families to come and enjoy all the best things in life together. For years, he had seen children playing around the fountain at Inglenook, pleading with their parents to allow them to jump in. Francis always sympathized with the children, so he thought the kids will want to go swimming, so let's have swimming pools.
Situated in the center of the park area at the winery, two swimming pools totaling 3,600 square feet are surrounded by chaise lounge chairs, which have become a welcome addition for children and adults on warm Alexander Valley days.
We look forward to seeing you poolside this summer!
For the 2021 pool season, we have taken proactive measures to socially distance our pool deck. This results in the need to eliminate all daily pool passes and greatly reduce the number of Cabines we have available to our guests. During this time, we can only allow guests with reservations onto the property. No additional pool passes can be added to your reservation as individual pool passes will not be available for the 2021 pool season.
Please note that in efforts to create social distancing, your chair groups will be assigned to you.
All pool guests will need to sign a Waiver of Liability upon arrival for us to honor their Cabine reservation. Click here to review the Waiver of Liability prior to your reservation day. If you have any questions regarding the Waiver of Liability, please email GuestServices@FrancisFordCoppolaWinery.com at least 48 hours in advance of your reservation date.

Diaper changes are not allowed on the pool deck. For diaper changes, please use the changing stations located in the restrooms. Reusable swim diapers are available for $18.00 each at Guest Reception.
