About

Greenacres Pool, located within Greenacres Park at 2014 Calloway Dr, Bakersfield, CA, is a public community swimming facility. It serves as a popular local spot for recreational swimming, swimming lessons, and various aquatic activities, especially during the summer season.

Specific pool temperatures for Greenacres Pool are not consistently published or readily available to the public. As a public community pool, it is generally maintained at comfortable swimming temperatures during its operational season, which typically aligns with warmer weather.

What are people saying (AI review summary)? This public pool is largely praised for its friendly and attentive staff, clean facilities including showers and bathrooms, and an uncrowded environment. It's often highlighted as a great value, especially for families and children, with stellar and effective swimming lessons taught by highly trained instructors. Many consider it a big, beautiful pool and a 'best-kept secret.' However, common drawbacks include limited operating hours (often only 2 hours), being an unheated outdoor pool with lessons available only in the summer. One significant negative review mentioned 'horrible water' during a swim meet, causing sickness.

I love this public pool. The staff are friendly and keep their watch points at all times as well as making sure that the public follows the rules of swimming and safety by reminding them in a respectful and friendly manner. The pool is not crowded like in other public swimming facilities. The showers and bathrooms are clean and the facilities are kept nice. I enjoy taking my children to swim here. The only thing I wish is that it would be open for a little bit longer than 2 hours.

They only have lessons in the summer. The pool is unheated and outdoors. The people are wonderful. I feel it is the best kept secret. Prices are great and everyone is there for the children. I had a really good time watching my kids learn so much through kind instruction. I cannot wait for this year to begin.

Swimming lessons are stellar. Swim instructors are highly trained and very effective. Can't say enough good things about this program at this place.

The water was horrible and it made me want to throw up during my swim meet. I would rather swim in the ocean with my eyes open then step in this pool again. Sorry.
