About

Simple, clean, concrete pool with a children's splash area, a diving board and friendly service.

The pool at Glennon Heights Pool is heated for comfortable recreational use. A specific target temperature is not publicly disclosed, but it is maintained as a heated facility.

What are people saying (AI review summary)? The pool is generally praised for being beautiful, clean, well-maintained, and offering amenities like a separate kiddie pool, diving board, and good facilities including family changing areas. However, several reviews express strong dissatisfaction with the pool's schedule and policies, which are seen as prioritizing adults and lap swimmers over families and young children. Complaints include restricted open swim hours (often during the hottest part of the day), strict rules preventing older siblings from accompanying younger ones in the kiddie pool, and limited or no access for families to the main pool during morning hours due to adult classes or lap swimming. This has led to disappointment for families, with some opting for other, more family-friendly pools. A safety concern was also raised regarding the use of strong cleaning chemicals while children are swimming.

The pool is beautiful! Very clean and well maintained! They also have a kiddie pool, which I think is really nice.

It's a nice clean local pool but the schedule definitely caters to adults, not families and kids. They don't let bigger kids into the kiddie pool with their little siblings which is ridiculous. Then open swim in the big pool is only from noon till 6pm...the hottest time of the day. Then there's ANOTHER "adult swim" time for ages 18+ from 6-8pm. For these reasons we hardly went to GH pool this season. We drive a little farther to 6th Ave West which is definitely more family and kid friendly.

First time ever visiting this pool and was pleasantly surprised. They post a daily pool schedule online and I saw that the daycare kids were leaving at 3pm so that is when we arrived. It was a hot Thurs afternoon and the pool felt amazing! There is a separate fenced kiddie pool area and then the regular pool area. There was no zero depth entry in the regular pool but the water is not that deep. They have a small diving board area with deeper water. There is also a basketball hoop on the other side on the other side of the pool from the diving board. Lots of lounge chairs and a few umbrellas. Bathrooms were large and well maintained and I did see a family changing area/room as well. We would definitely go back! Nice community pool with street parking.

MANAGER, please read! I think you should instruct employees to refrain from using Scrubbing Bubble to clean the edges of the pool—while kids are swimming—This is full of toxic chemicals and I don’t think it’s very smart to do this around the kids (who are probably drinking their fair share of pool water) and the chemicals have no where to go! Other than that, it’s a very nice community pool!

There was no information anywhere that younger people weren’t allowed in the pool before noon on Saturday, which is an insane rule to begin with. I got there with my 2 year old son and there was a water aerobics class taking up the whole pool. We waited for them to finish and then got into an unoccupied corner of the shallow end so my son could float around in his swim vest. The lifeguards put out the lane separators and people began swimming laps. We’re still by ourselves; minding our own business, away from the lap swimmers. Then a lifeguard comes over and says we’re not allowed in the pool until noon. Mind you this is 9:30am. The only place non-lap-swimmers were allowed to go, until the middle of the day, was a six inch puddle of a kiddie pool so that less than a dozen people could swim laps without the inconvenience of people with kids and younger families bothering them by existing. The lifeguards offered a rain check. My son ended up splashing around in the kiddie puddle for an hour and we left, incredibly disappointed.
