About
Family-friendly water park offering slides, diving boards and a lazy river.
Specific pool temperatures for the Gardner Aquatic Center's pools are not publicly available on the City of Gardner's official website or other readily accessible public information sources.
What are people saying (AI review summary)? The aquatic facility is generally highly praised for its diverse offerings, catering to all ages. It features multiple water slides (including both large and small options), a fun lazy river, dedicated shallow pools with play areas for young children, and a large traditional pool equipped with diving boards for swimming and lessons. Reviewers appreciate the abundance of activities, the presence of numerous lifeguards, and a convenient concession stand. While largely positive, some minor drawbacks noted include difficulty finding available chairs and very hot concrete surfaces, prompting a recommendation for water shoes. One specific negative experience was reported regarding a swim instructor's unsupportive approach with a scared child. Despite these minor points, many consider it a great destination for families, advising visitors to time their visits well for the best experience.

Always plenty of lifeguards. Lazy river is fun! Three fun water slides, water area for little kids and another pool for diving and water sports. Chairs can be hard to find and cement is really hot on the feet (bring water shoes). We love coming here instead of our local community pool.

Unfortunately, our swim instructor was not very nice and gave zero extra support for a very scared child so we will not be coming back.

Gardner has a great swimming pool. There are 2 big slides, a lazy river, then a little slide for kids and a little kids play gym area. Then there is the old pool. It is a great traditional pool with a couple of diving boards and where they do swimming lessons during the summer. It is a great place to take the kids, there is plenty to do no matter how old.
