About
Family-friendly pool featuring a beach-style entrance and 25-yard laps.
Specific, daily pool temperatures for the Devonshire Aquatic Center are not explicitly published on the Skokie Park District's public pages. However, outdoor aquatic centers typically maintain their water at comfortable swimming temperatures, generally ranging between 78-82°F (approximately 25.5-27.7°C), to ensure an enjoyable experience for all patrons.
What are people saying (AI review summary)? The reviews generally highlight positive experiences, praising the pools' attentive, helpful, and hard-working staff, comfortable water temperatures, and convenient amenities such as bottle-filling stations and changing facilities. Devonshire Pool is specifically mentioned as being ideal for toddlers due with its shallow depth and small slide, though it might be less engaging for older children, while also offering lap lanes and ample seating. However, a significant safety concern was raised regarding lifeguard attentiveness during 'Tot Swim,' with one reviewer detailing an incident where a lifeguard failed to notice a child in distress despite being nearby.

Such a fun pool to take the littles! We are so blessed to be a block away and can come frequently. The staff are really wonderful and work so hard to make sure everyone has a safe and awesome time. Kudos to the manager for letting me go down the steep slide this summer after giving birth last summer! Also appreciate having a bottle filling water fountain available to stay hydrated by the pool - makes it easy to keep the fun going on! The changing station is super handy too to go in and out of too.

In the town of Skokie, when summer gets hot, There are two water parks where you’ll cool off a lot. One big, one small—but both bring delight, So pack up your towels and dive into the light! Now let’s tiptoe down to Devonshire Pool, Where things are a bit more calm and cool. Just one little slide and a pool that’s not deep, Perfect for toddlers who wiggle and leap. It’s cozy, it’s sweet, it’s not big or grand, But for little ones? It’s simply just planned. The older kids might grow bored in a wink, But for tiny splashes, it’s heaven, we think! There’s seating aplenty, and lap lanes too, So you can swim circles if that’s what you do. And just like Oakton, the deal is the same— A membership’s great if you’re often in the game.

Very helpful and friendly staff. Great outdoor pool that includes a nice 25 yard lap pool.

I really like Tot Swim, but I noticed the life guards are usually MIA during this time. They wear sunglasses and look like they are dozing off. A few days ago we were one of just two families using the pool, and while I was helping my older son, my younger one ran into the deep end. When I turned around he was completely underwater and flailing his arms around. The lifeguard was right in front of him and didn't see a thing.
