The Sawyer Rooftop Pool

Do you like draanks? Do you like pools? The rooftop pool at The Sawyer combines those things together to provide ultimate relaxation for the summer. This picturesque pool provides the right amount of exposure to get that tan as well as a covered bar to escape the heat. Food can be served poolside as well. The Sawyer has thrown some pool parties, so keep an eye on their event calendar in case another one comes up! Unfortunately on their website the pool is listed for hotel guests. I called and they confirmed that if you patron Revival you cannot swim in the pool, which is a major bummer!
