Bar Public swimming pool

👍👍 I just went there earlier today and had a pool party. The pool is really wide and big and has a shallow water area. The water was a little bit dirty at the time but it didn't really bother me. The water was a bit cold at first, but once you stay in the water longer it doesn't. The water is fresh and... People often mention pool, people, summer,

    I just went there earlier today and had a pool party. The pool is really wide and big and has a shallow water area. The water was a little bit dirty at the time but it didn't really bother me. The water was a bit cold at first, but once you stay in the water longer it doesn't. The water is fresh and clean. Really nice place I recommend coming here between June, July, and early August.

    The town pool is great! Showers are ok, wished there was an outdoor option so you could take a quick shower both before and after getting in the pool. For this summer would have loved to see some more enforcement on the mask wearing, especially in the locker rooms. The last tree times I’ve taken my son in it’s been at least one guy in there with no mask. At one given time there ended up being three other people next to us with no masks. They spray the benches every five min even though no one sits on them but they don’t enforce mask police.

    Very disappointed summer of 22 at this pool. Numerous days accidents in pool in resulting in closing for 2 hours each time. Happened about 2 times a week inJuly, then someone kept using my beach chair, staff did nothing to even make an announcement to tell people if it's not your chair don't use it. Bring your own don't use anyone else's . I even taped my chair thinking that would take care of the problem. Well they still used it . The tape was off when I returned the following days. These people have no regards for other people property's next year I will take matters on my own. I will press charges against anyone taking something from me and usin it. After all the precautions I have taken for covid and what everelse goes around. This is disgusting that the pool staff does not take this matter seriously .

    My son wanted to go to the pool, I thought it was like Rahway Nj, where you pay $13-20 to Enter if your not a Member, West Orange NJ was a different story, they asked me to pay $160.00 To be a member to get access to the pool, just because is the end of summer I only have to pay $160 I was so Disappointed to tell my son 8year old she can't go inside, the sadness on his face when I told him no, let's do something else. DON'TWASTYVER ANSWER. I WISH I KNEW BEFORE I WASTED A TRIP DROVE OVERTHERE.

    The pool is excellent. But the people who provide the entrance service discriminate a lot against Hispanics and Black people if it had not been for a great Peruvian lady resident of the area who is a member of the neighborhood committee, since I came from Newark I would not have entered with my 2 babies in one day super hot summer last year. Work on those people.

    I live in West Orange. Attended this pool when my children were young, now take my grandson. It is clean, has different areas for swimmers, great splash pool for younger children. Great place.

    Great town pool experience so far this summer. Post the Covid-19 high rates of this spring for Essex County, I was hesitant about paying for this season..However, seems everyone in town stayed away for the same reason this summer. I only rejoined a week ago. The crowds are gone from prior summers, such that social distancing is not an issue. Most patrons are also wearing masks when necessary (when meandering around with less than 6 feet available) Pool staff are also routinely sanitizing the place and wearing masks - amazing teens like most summers.

    It is an excellent training place both for children to learn to swim and relax, as well as for relaxation and fun for all audiences since it offers a team of coaches who are willing to teach swimming techniques to children as well as entertainment for people. of the third and general public, and because it has green areas and trees that offer warm shade, thank you for existing
