About
Soccer fields, archery ranges, playgrounds and trails join a 9-hole golf course at this free park.
Specific, consistently published temperatures for the pools at the Cato Park Aquatic Center are not readily available online. However, public aquatic centers typically maintain their recreational pools at comfortable temperatures, generally ranging from 78-82°F (25.5-27.8°C) during their operational season.
What are people saying (AI review summary)? This park is highly recommended for families, offering a wide array of activities suitable for spending hours or even days. Amenities include soccer fields (especially popular during season), a golf course, a new rhythm/pump track for BMX bikes, a dog park, an archery range, playgrounds, disc golf, and extensive trails. The pool is generally well-liked, featuring a large shallow area for new swimmers and a kiddie pool with a water feature, though its opening time (noon) is a common negative point for families wishing for morning swims. There was also a specific concern regarding perceived lifeguard inactivity leading to the deep end's closure on one occasion. Despite this, the park offers a comprehensive outdoor experience.

Our little family loves this park, especially during soccer season. The pool is also wonderful. It used to be free to guests, but I'm not sure as to what their policy is today for the pool. You could spend hours, if not days here, trying to take in everything they have to offer. I highly recommend this park for a family fun filled day!

The golf course and new rhythm/pump track for bmx bikes right when you enter the park. All kinds of things to do from the dog park , archery range , playgrounds , soccer fields ,pool , and plenty of trails around the park into the woods, and disc golf plenty of things to enjoy.

We really enjoyed this pool! The only negative (one it’s a big one for little kids) is that it doesn’t open until noon. The big pool has a big area that isn’t very deep - great for just-learning swimmers. It has nice sized kiddie pool with cute water feature. We had a great time! (Just wish there was a morning swim time for this hot,hot summer weather)

I was there for 3 hours and half the life guards were seemingly standing around not doing anything. A group of 3 female lifeguards specifically were just walking around not even near the pool. They claimed the deep end was closed because not enough lifeguards but maybe if the other 6 lifeguards didn’t leave all the work to the 3 that were actually doing their job it could have been opened. Obviously I don’t know the ins and outs of the job and I understand people have breaks but for the 3 hours it was the same 3 lifeguards while they other ones were all standing around talking near the bathrooms. Fine pool besides that.
