Grosse Pointe Farms, MI

53 Apartments for Rent with Pools

Grosse Pointe Farms used to be where the rich and famous of Old Detroit chose to make their homes, back in the glory days of the auto industry. The auto industry executives loved the ideal combining lakefront living along Lake St. Clair, with easy access to downtown Detroit. Today, Grosse Pointe Farms is a little more accessible to average joes than it used to be, but you can still sense the old money heritage in the well-maintained, tree-lined streets. One thing that hasn't changed, though, is the fact that Grosse Pointe Farms has an awesome location, especially if you work in downtown Detroit. Lakefront living close to the city? Sign us up.

Finding apartments with a pool in Grosse Pointe Farms means cooling off from the summer heat, get-togethers, and more exercise. However, there are a few things to consider before signing your next lease.

Ask the property management how long the pool is open each year. Is it seasonal? Does the pool have a heat pump to make it practical to swim beyond summertime? You should also inquire about pool rules, capacity, and if unattended children are permitted. The size of the pool also matters. An oversized apartment complex with a tiny pool could mean crowded summers and frustrations when trying to take a quick dip.

Finding apartments with a pool in Grosse Pointe Farms could also drive up your rent, but may be worth the trade-off. Assess the overall amenities of the property. Apartments with a pool may look fantastic on the outside, but inside the kitchen could need an upgrade or the bedrooms could prove smaller than you want.

Once you find the apartment of your dreams, enjoy an afternoon swim and get to know your new neighbors.
