What are people saying (AI review summary)? Irene Pool generally receives very positive feedback, particularly from families with children of all ages, who appreciate the splash pad for younger kids and the main pool. Visitors highlight the affordable $3 entry fee, the ability to bring their own food, and the friendly, 'top-notch' staff. However, a recurring issue is the pool's frequent and unannounced closures, often despite listed hours on the website, and a disconnected phone number, which has led to significant disappointment for some patrons. One instance of early closure due to a lifeguard shortage was handled well with free entry vouchers.

My family and I had a great time at Irene pool. It was my partner and our two youngest children ages 12 and 2. My 2-year-old thoroughly enjoyed the splash pad and all of us enjoyed the pool. I would highly recommend going here with kids young to old. I would also recommend Irene pool if you have no children at all. Just pack a lunch during the pool break times so that you can enjoy a snack or a lunch. Be sure to bring your own pool chairs. You can't beat the $3 entry fee. While we were there they actually had to close early due to not having enough lifeguards, which is totally understandable. They provided every family with a voucher for free entry the next time we are able to go. The staff was top notch and we all thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and will be back.

We bring our 12 year old daughter and she loves swimming. We also bring our 3 year old here because theres a nice area for younger kids. They both absolutely love it and the people that run it are really nice too

New to the area and came to the pool on a Sunday afternoon. . It was fantastic! Unfortunately since that day...everytime we went the pool was closed. Website listed hours and we tried several times but found it closed every time we went weekdays and weekends. Tried the phone number but it's been disconnected. What a shame. Very disappointed. 😞
