Legendary Escapes Lighting Packages make all the difference. You can go with traditional landscape lights for your backyard swimming pool area, or you can go with an exciting low voltage lighting surround with custom built fixtures for that extra wow factor!
Traditional Swimming Pool Landscape Lighting
Lighting around your pool can make all the difference to the enjoyment of your backyard pool. Most traditional “landscape lighting” packages include low fixtures that illuminate only the ground. They don’t create enough light to enjoy the space. They are often capped at a height of under 2′ tall, shining on paths or up to light trees and walls. A Legendary Escapes Lighting experience actually feels like the lighting was done on purpose for the people enjoying the space.

Functional, Ambient Pool Landscape Lighting
Legendary Escapes Lighting is designed with enjoyment of the space by people in mind. The lighting can be custom designed to fit your theme, space, and design, creating functional, ambient, useable light that creates the wow factor in your pool scape. The lighting is unique, and can be as artful, eclectic or eccentric as the pool environment itself. It is soft, gentle, and thoughtful lighting to create just the right space.
Landscape Lighting Fixtures as Design Elements
Creating useable space with ambient light that is pretty and functional all the time is a key element of the Legendary Escapes Lighting philosophy. The fixtures become design elements during the day, and appear artful and eye pleasing. The lighting benefit is viewed at night, as they create the lighting experience that completes the environment, bathing it in warm, inviting light.
Patio Spaces and Back Yard Landscape Lighting
The property areas that benefit greatly from this style and approach to lighting are the backyard and entertaining spaces of the home. It can include the back yard, rear yard, back yard garden, gazebo or oasis. It’s completing a private or personal resort area that the family can retreat to, right outside the home. Patio spaces, pool houses, cabanas, tree houses, fountains, and outdoor living spaces are the perfect environment with Legendary Lighting.
