Passionately Crafted Backyards for Every Season of Life.
Who we are
At Staycation Creation, we’re more than pool builders—we’re home builders who understand how to bring every detail of your backyard to life. Founded by husband-and-wife team Mike and Reagan Milton, our family-owned company combines construction expertise with personal care to create custom pools, outdoor living spaces, and complete retreats where families can relax, celebrate, and make lasting memories.
Our Services
Custom Gunite Pool Design & Construction
We build custom Gunite pools tailored to your vision by teaming with top designers. Focused solely on Baldwin County, we build faster than competitors while delivering true white-glove service. Best of all—you deal directly with the owners, who manage every project themselves.
Outdoor Living Design & Construction
As long-time Baldwin County home builders, our strong trade partnerships let us deliver more than pools—we create complete backyards with outdoor kitchens, gazebos, custom living spaces, and even sod installation. By the time your pool is ready, your backyard is finished and ready to enjoy with friends and family!
Not All Pool Builders are Equal.
You Should Know Why.

We have the best designers
It all begins with the design consultation. By the end of the first meeting, you’ll see your vision in 3D—bringing clarity, confidence, and excitement while setting the stage for a faster, smoother build.

We build quality faster
At Staycation Creation, we build faster because we’re smaller, more nimble, and focused solely on Baldwin County. With trusted trade partners and owners who personally manage every project, communication is clear and the process stays efficient. The result: a streamlined build that delivers your pool in nearly half the time of larger companies—without ever sacrificing quality or customer care.

We document the progress
We track construction progress from the sky with drone flights at key stages—excavation, gunite, decking, and completion. These aerial snapshots provide detailed documentation, ensure every phase meets our quality standards, and give you peace of mind knowing your investment is being carefully monitored from start to finish.

We always finish strong
With most builders, the relationship ends when the pool is finished. At Staycation Creation, that’s just the beginning. We re-sod your yard, provide a full Pool School, and give you tools you can reference for years—ensuring you’re confident in caring for your investment and supported long after your pool is complete.

"I dreaded putting in a pool for years because we had heard so many horror stories of projects dragging on for six months or more. Mike and Reagan at Staycation Creation completely changed that experience for us. They built our pool in 4 weeks, and they were personally on-site every time someone was working. The communication was excellent—we never had to wonder what was coming next. The entire process was smooth, and most importantly, we now have a beautiful pool that my family practically lives in!"

“This husband-and-wife team did an incredible job on our pool and gave us the best experience possible during construction. From the moment we signed on, they treated us like family - transparent, responsive, and genuinely invested in turning our dream into reality. Their attention to detail is evident in every step. Reagan helped us so much with thoughtful design tweaks, quality finishes, and careful problem-solving that kept the project moving smoothly.
Mike explained each phase in plain terms, kept us updated, and never made us feel in the dark when it came to pricing and expectations. The job site was tidy, and they were respectful of our time and yard throughout. Our family was blessed to meet them, and we'll cherish the memories we'll make around this pool for years to come. If you're in Baldwin County and considering a pool, Staycation Creation is the team you want on your side. Thanks so much!!”

We could not be happier with our experience with Mike and Raegan (the power couple)! From start to finish, they were incredibly timely, detail-oriented, and professional.
They communicated with us every single day, keeping us informed and confident throughout the entire pool-building process. What stood out most was not just the quality of their work —which was flawless— but the way they made us feel. By the end, it felt less like working with contractors and more like working with friends who truly cared about our home and family. If you're looking for someone who delivers on promises, pays attention to every detail, and makes the process enjoyable, we can't recommend them enough!
