It typically operates during the summer months, offering a community swimming experience with amenities such as a main pool, diving boards, and areas for general recreation, lap swimming, and often swimming lessons for local residents.

Specific, regularly published pool temperatures for the Gatesville City Pool are generally not available. As a public outdoor facility, its water temperature typically fluctuates with ambient weather conditions and is not usually actively heated or cooled to a set degree.

What are people saying (AI review summary)? This pool is generally well-received for its cleanliness, affordability ($3 per person), and large size, making it suitable for families, individuals, and couples. It offers plenty of shallow water for toddlers and a deep end with a diving board. Ample lifeguards ensure a safe environment. However, some common criticisms include overly strict rules regarding diving board use (no flips), uncomfortable pebbled concrete on the walk to seating areas, and a lack of amenities such as lockers, updated bathrooms, and a proper snack bar.

Other than the fact that you’ll be violating the rules for doing front flips , back flips, gainers, cartwheels or anything else fun off of the diving board… It’s almost worse than losing your freedom of speech… but throwing a foot ball around children is more dangerous… waters nice and cool… Great for toddlers!

I love this pool! Plenty of shallower water for the younger ones and a diving board for the more experienced. The only drawback is the walk from the pool to the seats...the concrete is embedded with larger pebbles that wreck your feet!

The pool is really clean and my kids loved it. Lifeguards all over the place to assist in ensuring everything is safe. Prices are great

This is a great place for families and individuals and couples alike! The cost was great: $3.00 per person. The pool is very large with a diving board at the 10.5 foot deep end and a few slides outlining the shallower sides. There were a few lifeguards on duty. The water was clean. What could they do for that 5th star? Offer lockers, refresh bathrooms, and offer a real snack bar nearby, but away from the pool.
