👍👍 Great pool, facilities were clean. We enjoyed our time and felt that the cost of getting in was affordable. It was relatively quick getting in for a drop in swim. People often mention pool, swim, kids, swimming,

    Took my grandkids to the pool for a swim. I'm disappointed in the city website as it lacks required information: 1. The time of pool opening was wrong. Please note they open at 1:30pm not 1:00. 2. Website has nothing on dress code, but there is one. 3. Nothing on slide operations, it opened at 2:30pm. 4. Nothing on the website about 15 min non swimming for all. Used to be adults could use the 15 min break to use the pool while kids sat out resting? Now only lifeguards swim then. They call it safety break? 5. Refreshment stand was closed, so no where but a vending machine to get something to drink which is in the lobby where you have to be in your street clothes and dry? 6. Only shade area is so far away from the pool you cannot watch your kids properly? They could drape a cover on the wall to provide additional shaded sitting area. Over all it was very clean, lifeguards were active and kids were controlled. I recommend this for our community and visitors, just get the website updated.

    There is an Olympic size pool that is open in summer. Kids come to swim all season. They have day care and after school care. They teach kids how to swim. There is 2 full basketball courts inside and kids play basketball from age 4 and up. It is a good place for kids to go and be safe and enjoy.

    Swimming here is super fun when it's not crowded. The slides are awesome, and the picnic tables under canopies the most perfect addition. Totally wheelchair accessible, including the showers. But I am most impressed with the work the lifeguards do.

    I've been swimming at the rec center pool since I was a little girl. I worked as a lifeguard through my teen years and through some rough years of facility management. At the moment, the current management and staff do an excellent job to maintain the pool, though I'm saddened it's only seasonally available. Regardless, 5 stars.

    Son is taking swim lessons here in the evenings. Staff is great and facilities are spacious and clean. Haven't seen the gym side of things but if it is anything like the pool then I imagine it's also an excellent facility.

    Pool is a nice facility. I don’t like to have to leave my lap swimming for 15 minutes every hour “so the lifeguards can swim”. Seems needless! Also the hours seem rather restrictive. Pool could be open longer each day. This is a great facility and needs to be kept open year round. Used to have a Winter cover. Now it closes in October.

    $4 to swim! Bring back the good concession stand that would be fun! New locker facilities.
