Rental with a Pool in the Back

[Ryan Stahr]

I'm considering a foreclosure in a great rental neighborhood. It meets all my criteria, except for one big variable - it has an in ground pool. No idea why someone put an in ground pool in this area, but it adds way more risk in my mind as a landlord (risk of falls, drowning, upkeep, maintenance, etc.). 

Who has experience with pools in a rental? How did you manage it and have you ever filled in a pool with success? I've read only horror stories online.
