About

The Lexington Municipal Pool, located at 198 Wallace St, Lexington, VA, is an outdoor public swimming facility managed by the City of Lexington. Typically open during the summer months, it serves as a community hub for recreational swimming, swimming lessons, and a place for families to cool off. It generally features a main pool, a diving well, and a shallow wading area or splash pad for younger children, all supervised by lifeguards.

Specific pool temperatures for the Lexington Municipal Pool are not typically published, as it is an outdoor facility. The water temperature would generally fluctuate based on ambient weather conditions and sun exposure.

What are people saying (AI review summary)? This public pool is generally well-regarded, offering a nice and clean swimming area with lifeguards, a diving board, and ample seating. The entry fee is an affordable $5 per person, with children 3 and under free. While some adults appreciate the dedicated 'adult swim' time, which requires children to exit the pool for 10 minutes at various points during the hour, others find this policy inconvenient for families. Facilities include showers and changing rooms, though the bathrooms are noted as run down by one reviewer. A snack bar is available, and there is parking, including for semi-trucks. However, the pool does not accept card payments.

The swimming area is nice. They do not take cards for payment. The “adult time” at the top of every hour is NOT okay—which entails the lifeguard blowing a whistle and ushering all children out of the pool for the first 10 minutes of every hour. (Who came up with this?! 😂🤦🏼‍♀️) VERY inconvenient for guardians with children.

Water clean. Bathrooms run down. Lots of chairs in the sun but also in the shade. Lifeguards on duty. For a pool it doesn't get much better than this. Theirs showers and changing rooms. If you have a big semi truck theirs parking very close. It's $5 to get in the pool. Lots of tight lil thangs in thong bikinis running around. Theirs a diving board. Not any overweight people here. If your looking for a pool this is the spot. Good day sir!

We had so much fun here!! Great little spot to take the family, they also have adult swim which is nice, every end of a hour adults get the last ten mins '1:50' '2:50' . I also enjoyed that so I recommend to everyone. Adults and children 5 bucks 3 and under free!! So worth it!!🩵

Life guards on station the entire time. Nice little snack bar. Kids enjoyed themselves. Adult swim was minimal. Overall nice area and relatively inexpensive.
