About

Heated aquatic center with a lap pool, a wading space, a waterslide and a splash pad.

Specific, consistently published temperature information for Robbins Pool is not readily available online. As an outdoor public pool, its water temperature would naturally vary based on ambient weather conditions throughout its operating season.

What are people saying (AI review summary)? This pool receives generally positive reviews, often highlighted for its cleanliness, well-maintained facilities, and family-friendly amenities such as a splash pad, large water slide, and diving board, which contribute to an 'old-school' feel. Visitors praise the attentive lifeguards and effective water aerobics instructors. However, common drawbacks include limited seating, making it advisable to bring your own chairs, and a tendency to get crowded, particularly on certain days. Some visitors found the $8 fee for non-residents expensive, and there were mentions of vending machine issues. The pool also lacks dedicated lap swimming lanes and has periodic 'adult swim' breaks. Despite these points, many reviewers had a great time and expressed enthusiasm for returning.

Went here for morning water aerobics while in town visiting. The instructor we had was great and gave us a good workout. The pool is SUPER clean. You can't beat it for $5. The chairs are limited, so bring your own if you are there to swim. The water was cool at first but then very refreshing.

Expensive pool. 8 dollars per person for visitors. Can be crowded.

Love this pool! Although there's no place to swim laps, it's a great place for the kids. It’s new, but it feels old school with a diving board and a laid-back vibe that is reminiscent of my childhood spent in the sun, swimming with friends, and passing the time having diving competitions, sun-bathing, and sharing a pool-side picnic. This is a place for summertime fun for all.

Great pool, well kept & guarded. Must of been bus the kids in day (a Thursday). 2 large vans full were there. Seating was only about 20 chairs so had to wait for some. Hopefully will be less crowded once school starts.

Loved this place! Splash pad, zero gravity entrance, large water slide. 2 lifeguards on duty. Nice locker room area. I would suggest bringing your own chair...they have lounge chairs but limited amt. Also, maybe pack your own snacks... vending available but signs mention they often take your money. One negative was a break every 50 min for "adult swim". Not sure what that's about but it gave kids a rest break. Overall, we had a great time and are looking forward to going back!
