A one-year trial membership is available for those who wish to experience the pool before purchasing a certificate.

Joined Elkland in 2024 & was one of the best decisions I ever made. Staff were all friendly & the pool stays open until 8 pm, which worked out perfectly with my work schedule. Numerous events are offered throughout the summer & they offer a swim team kids can join. I highly recommend this pool to anyone considering joining a members only pool.
This is a nice little private pool and everyone was friendly today when we attended a birthday party. There was a nice little shelter in the back for parties and gatherings. There is a diving board and kiddie pool that is closed in with a shade awning (which was so nice for little ones). There is a nice, new, play ground equipment and swings outside the fence but on the grounds. The bathrooms were nice and I got some pictures because there was no one in there with us. The concession stand was really reasonably priced and 3 of us had lunch for under 20 bucks. The dining area by the concession area was nice, clean, and shaded. Overall we really liked the place!
It's a nice small pool. The kiddie pool is partly shaded under an awning and is fenced in so you don't have to worry about your little ones wandering around. It has a little picnic shelter in the back where you can have gatherings or birthday parties. Has a fairly large covered area for concessions. The staff have been great the few times we have been up here.
Really nice private pool. Very clean and comfortable. Lots of chairs and umbrellas. Great lifeguard staff. Very nice snack bar area with great pool food menu. Nice clean shower rooms. UPDATE Still nice as ever!
A great place for summer fun. A previous post stated, this place is a "sham". I am sorry you feel this way. A common misconception about our pool is with the construction certificate.
