Very nice pool. Lots and lots of lanes for lap swimming. They have a deep pool for lanes and a waist height pool for laps as well. Lots of open plastic beach seats. Thru also have a nice kiddy section with water play areas. I like that they have a gated, 18 plus pool area

The people working at the pool are doing everything possible to make sure people are able to exercise with confidence in these uncertain times of covid19. I am so greatful!

Its amazing to have such a top-notch aquatic center in our community. The prices are very reasonable, the pool tech amazing, and the staff friendly. The locker rooms are average, but not bad for a municipal facility. What is amazing for a municipal facility is having so many lanes with top-notch pool tech.

Great pool has lots of areas for parents to sit. 2 bathrooms/changing rooms located on both sides of the pool. Has a snack bar that is sometimes open on the weekends. Four diving boards (2 high, 2 low).

The Saturday 8am Masters is such a fun and welcoming group. Jeff plans fun and challenging workouts and you have the scoreboard so no need to calculate lap times!

An amazing facility with a heated pool and a non heated pool.

Avoid weekends with parties. They have inflatables for private parties that take up the deep pool. If your kiddo wants to play around and swim somewhere they cant touch, theyre out of luck. The play area ends up being two crowded narrow strips on either end of the shallow pool (on either side of swim lanes and another private-use inflatable).For those kids in between learning to swim and lap swimming, the diving boards are fun for a while, just make sure youre there when the boards are open.

Review №21

Excellent pool. Has 50 meter olympic sized pool set at a cool 78 and a 25 yard lap pool for others and kids set closer to 85. Has jacuzzi and splash pad for kids. Has locker rooms and private changing rooms with showers and toilets. Excellent view of the playground next door. Peaceful and beautiful. They even have an area they serve food, not sure when thats open. A bit expensive.

We went at 3:30 on a Sunday because it said it was open until 5:30 on Sunday , only to find out it closes at 4:00 on Sundays. Very poor response from the teenagers at the front desk when I suggested they update their websites. It’s unfortunate when you bring a group of little kids to be told with a defensive attitude that they close in 15 minutes. Poor staffing. They need some staff meetings on people skills and how to handle a job that has you dealing with the public.

Wow! This aquatic center has so much! I went for the splash pad because of my 3 year old. It consisted of various fountains for the little ones to get wet under. I also saw diving boards, some kind of bouncy obstacle course, a lap pool, a hot tub and lots of open seating. Bathrooms were very nice and have private showers. I saw some kind of food stand but I didnt check it out.$5 to use the facilities and $2 to be an observer. Kids under 4 are free.

Easy, clean, big, fun and safe. What more could you ask for as a parent for a swim location? Lots to do, warm water, & diving boards! Cafe is a nice touch. $5 adults, $3 kids, $2 spectator fee.

Grandma took my son for a private swim class. She didn’t know who the instructor was. Instructor knew that my son checked in and never bothered looking for him or trying to find him to get his money worth. So my son ended up not having a class and Aquatic Center refused to provide me with the refund.

Review №59

Awesome pool and Sophias but this place gets really crowded on weekends even when the weather is just so so. Open swim for kids is confined to a tiny section of one of the pools and the diving boards dont open to the public until noon and they are almost always late to do that.

Review №60

Excellent facility with the potential for five stars! However the management does not teach any sort of conflict resolution and a lifeguards often ignore any potential conflict. The management States conflict resolution is not their job however they clearly do not understand. Conflict is a safety issue and should be a priority for them. They have no problem telling children where they can and cant swim however they ignore it when somebody has been swimming in a lane for some time and another adult decides to park themself there and not move. Unacceptable. Last Summer we reported a lifeguard for being on her cell phone, she was not watching the water at all. Management did act on that immediately to their credit.

Review №65

The lifeguards are worthless here.Be sure to watch your kids because these clueless day dreaming lifeguards wont.Heres what happened, after my twin boys swimming lessons, they went to play for a while at the opposite shallow end. My son finds a random inflatable tube in the pool and climbs on. Some other kid flips him over and my son is head down, underwater, stuck and drowning. Clueless girl lifeguard , a mere 7 feet in front of him does nothing - even after alerting her that there was a problem. My husband had to jump in, work clothes, shoes wallet phone and all to save him. She waltzes over and says as long as hes breathing hes fine...did not assess him, nor show any concern. He was under for 10 seconds...she didnt take an incident report, nor apologize for FAILING at her ONE job...to keep kids safe.
