Renting with a pool. Not sure what to do.

Hello BP

We will be renting out our house in the future here in the west Michigan area.  It has a pool that is relatively shallow; 4' at the deep end and 3' at the shallow end.  I am not sure if it was meant for a lap pool or for kids.   I have been weighing the options and am not sure what route to take.  First and foremost, is the safety of the tenants, especially children.   I also would want to protect myself and my investment as much as possible if something did happen.  I would go through great lengthen's to ensure the pool is safe in every aspect possible.  I would also have to see if the cash flow would increase enough to offset the cons of renting with a pool.  Any input from the BP community would be greatly appreciated.  

Thanks in advance.
