About

Family-friendly pool boasting diving boards and slides, as well as spray areas for kids.

The City of Olathe's pools, including Oregon Trail Park Pool, are generally heated for swimmer comfort. However, a specific, publicly stated water temperature for this pool is not consistently provided.

What are people saying (AI review summary)? This pool is generally praised for being less crowded than other local options and good for easily supervising children, with some guests appreciating dedicated adult swim times and ample shaded seating. However, there are significant criticisms, particularly regarding staff inconsistency; some found staff ununderstanding, easily annoyed, or hostile (e.g., over minor incidents), while others found them helpful. Other common complaints include unclean bathrooms, poor quality and limited selection at concessions (which are also cash-only), and undesirable music choices. While some lifeguards are noted as engaged, the overall experience seems to be a mixed bag, with a need for improvement in staff consistency, concession offerings, and facility cleanliness.

Staff lowkey not the most understanding people, saw some kids playing with a volleyball and it hit one of the lifeguards by complete accident so guess what the lifeguards did, blew the whistle twice got the manager over there and threatened to kick them out. Rather elementary if I do say so myself. Food is completely terrible, the cheese was all moldy, the soda was just the syrup no celtzer in it. Staff gets easily annoyed and hostile, they’re in deep need of an attitude adjustment.

We just started going here. PROS:It is less crowded than Black Bob and has sprinklers that are good when kids have to be out in the heat for safety checks. The lifeguards also seem pretty engaged in their job. CONS: The music is awful! What kid under 18 wants to listen to Country or nor do I, for that matter. The bathrooms are not clean not wven early in the day. Also, bring cash if you are going to be there very long because they don't take cards at the concessions, plus they really don't have much..

It's nice for a neighborhood pool; decent for a community pool. Nothing significantly impressive. But nothing that was bothersome. It was enjoyable. Staff wasn't annoyed or dismissive when I asked questions. Lots of places to choose from to sink into. Some even with shading. Allowed time for adults, so I was able to do some laps uninterrupted; that was NICE!
