About
Public pool featuring 2 slides, a diving board, and a wading area for younger swimmers.
Specific pool water temperatures for the City of Moorhead Municipal Pool are not readily advertised or published on their official resources. As an outdoor municipal pool, its temperature typically fluctuates with ambient weather conditions and is generally not heated to a precise, consistent degree.
What are people saying (AI review summary)? This pool elicits mixed reviews. Many praise it as a wonderful facility, noting its 12ft depth for diving boards and slides, a dedicated toddler area with shallow pools, and attentive lifeguard staff, particularly with children. Patrons appreciate the nice changing rooms and restrooms, ample seating, and the overall friendly staff. However, significant criticism targets the pool's extremely strict safety enforcement, with constant whistles and perceived excessive lifeguard intervention, which some found to be overly intrusive and detrimental to the experience, even after passing swim tests. Other points of concern include the cash-only entry fee and the presence of gender-specific bathrooms (though staff are respectful of pronouns), and conflicting opinions exist regarding the availability of shade.

Perfect pool! The Lifeguard staff pays close attention to Littles swimming. There is also a separate divided area with baby pool swimming options. 12ft depth for diving board and water slides.

Wonderful pool. 1M diving board with two slides. Has a toddler area with two shallow pools. Nice facilities for changing and restrooms. Lots of chairs and they got these large umbrellas that offer plenty of shade!

It's great for cooling off. You will need cash, as they don't accept cards for the entry fee. There is practically no shade to protect you from the sun. So if you burn easily, bring waterproof sunscreen. It's decently deep. No splashing, running out rough housing as is expected from a more crowded pool. The staff was friendly and genuinely seemed to enjoy being there. Unfortunately, there are gender specific bathrooms and changing rooms. Though the staff was respectful of pronouns.

To be honest, this pool takes safety concerns to a level that is extreme. The whistles never stop. My partner swears they get paid by the whistle. I’m in the water, one on one with my own child who recently graduated swimming lessons, eyes directly on him, within arms and he is showing me his new found skills and confidence. Then a teenager hovers over you both and insists he needs a life jacket and that he isn’t a strong swimmer. The confidence drained from my kid and he wouldn’t get back in the pool. Im all about safety, but it’s hard to feel comfortable while feeling like you are breaking every one of the fine print rules just by existing.

This pool is run like the third Reich. ever been to a pool where they make everyone take a swimming test before going off the diving board? my son completed the test, and they STILL told him he couldn't. The whole place is a residual effect of gen z softness.
