A bear cub took a dip in a lavish swimming pool to escape the summer heat.

The moment captured on video shows the uninvited guest hanging out in the pool of a $6.9 million Asheville, North Carolina mansion. A realtor, Marilyn Wright, was preparing to show the home when she caught the cub in action as he relaxed and enjoyed the cool water that was hitting his fur, according to Storyful.

Wright could not believe her eyes and decided to record the cub chilling and enjoying his newfound scenery.

The cub "took a good dip to cool off and then came out, sniffed the terrace and headed out," Wright told Storyful.

It is safe to say that this $6.9 million mansion is cub-approved.
