Great spot for the kids. Low key, smaller crowd typically. The farmers market is a plus too, when the kids are tired mom and dad can go get some fresh local goods. Public restrooms are available as well.

Beautiful community park with 2 great playgrounds for kids of different ages, big open field, a creek, and great water park to boot. Also, on Wednesdays there is a great market with fresh local produce and prepared foods.

I went there with my teenage twin grandchildren. They had a great time. I enjoyed sitting in the shade watching them have fun in the water and coming down the water slide. One of the visits there was a birthday party and we were asked to share their cake and ice cream. Great family pool park.

A perfect family-friendly water park. My husband,daughter and I had an absolute blast. This place is tons of fun and the staff are very polite. You can always find a place to put your stuff down and just relax. Highly recommend!

This pool is crazy! Its nearly like a theme park. For $11 each, my nine year old and I can go to a movie for two hours OR spend all day here...its an easy choice. It has a lazy river, and several other options for non swimmers and swimmers alike.

This place was awesome for kids and adults. They make the children get out of the water for 15 mins of every hour so thr parents can have a few relaxing minutes to ourselves! Definitely a great place to spend a day for everyone. Enjoy!

Nice park with a family friendly location. The issue I had was the amount of bird droppings. Also the BIG slide isnt kid friendly or safe. This slide in particular should be checked out by city officials. All in all a nice park for a family outing.

I think if you don’t need a wrist band you should be able to go in the deep end without a swim test.food stinks.there isn’t much to do for teenagers/adults.

PARK Nice park for littles, a cute little shallow creek to explore, an older covered pavillion. Nice parking lot. use of Meade Pool outside bathrooms is nice.POOL Fun occasional visit for the kids. borders on amusement park or beach hotel fun. Overpriced and crowded for regular visits but still still more affordable and fun than Fry Springs. With the elimination of Mcintyre wading pool (historic loss), Meade is better than nothing I suppose.

Ok, I have it a great review a little while ago. That was before there was some maintenance issue, and we waited poolside for over an hour with no word on the repair status for the staff. Other guests said that maintenance had not even notified when the problem arose. Not sure where that info cam from.When we were leaving, we were informed maintenance had not even arrived yet at the desk. We were offered no refund, no passes for later... Nothing. $33 wasted.We were so disappointed, especially my daughter as it was her 10th bday. :(. Dont think well be going back. On to Plan B for the day.

Family friendly water park during summer months, closed Wednesday. Wednesdays 3-7:00 pm Charlottesville Farmers Mkt is held here. Clean bathrooms open week-long.Tall beautiful trees for shade around the pool area, easy grass to walk on. Family friendly, bring strollers or kids wagons to check it out. Makes a wonderful Farmers Mk T environment. Re: Parks & Recs for more information.Park is to left of pool. Playground, benches. Grassy area well maintained. A treasure tucked off Mead St. Free parking at pool area. Also Free street parking.Relaxing environment. If you have children, this en5ire area is a must experience. Just check times open between the pool, Farmers Mkt. Park open everyday during daylight hours.
