About

Public pool offering water slides, climbing obstacles, and diving boards, plus birthday parties.

Specific pool temperature information for the Adel Family Aquatic Center is not readily available on official sources.

What are people saying (AI review summary)? The aquatic center receives mixed reviews, highlighting both positive and negative experiences. Many patrons enjoy the great pool, fun slides, and find it suitable for all ages. Some reviews specifically commend attentive lifeguards and clean, well-maintained facilities, contributing to a safe and enjoyable experience. However, common criticisms include inaccurate online information regarding opening hours and a lack of shaded picnic tables, particularly for parties. A severe negative incident involved an unsanitary encounter with a child, which led to a very poor experience for some. Furthermore, there is a notable inconsistency in lifeguard performance, with some visitors praising their attentiveness while others expressed serious safety concerns due to perceived unprofessional and inattentive lifeguarding practices.

Great pool but when I look it up online if it open, it’s it always says it’s open, but it’s actually not but it’s actually a great pool. It gives you something to do. Great slides.

This pool was great! We decided to have our daughter’s 3rd birthday here and it was fun for all ages!! One thing I wish was different was the picnic tables that were offered for the party were not shaded! If you plan to have a party here, definitely bring your own tent/cover.

A kid was swimming next me and started to jump all over my friends. He proceeded to piss all over me and my friends. Horrible experience, would not come back.

I had an amazing time at the Aquatic Center! The lifeguards were super attentive and made me feel really safe. The facilities were clean and well-maintained. Definitely a great spot for some fun in the water!

I have never felt so unsafe at a pool or seen such unprofessional lifeguarding in my life. Guards with their legs kicked up while on stand. Guards are getting off their stand and completely ignoring their zone. This is absurd and absolutely unacceptable and dangerous. If anyone became a drowning victim at this facility during a pool check I do believe it would have gone south VERY quickly. Hard to have a good time with poor lifeguarding like this.
