About

Public swimming pool that's good for kids.

Specific pool temperatures for the Grundy Family Aquatic Center are not consistently published or readily available online. Public aquatic centers often maintain their pools at comfortable temperatures, generally ranging from 78-84°F (25-29°C), though exact temperatures can vary by feature and time of year.

What are people saying (AI review summary)? Overall, the aquatic facility receives positive feedback for its cleanliness, wonderful facilities, and friendly, welcoming staff, making it enjoyable for a wide range of ages from young children (3-7) to older kids and adults. Patrons appreciate the slides, diving boards, and the great value at $5 per person, noting that it's an exciting day out. However, some common concerns include the 3.5-foot section getting crowded, difficulty finding available lounge chairs, and the high price of concessions. There was also a specific negative experience reported regarding a lifeguard's unprofessional behavior and a minor complaint about discomfort from a yellow slide.

I really enjoyed taking my nephews here. It is not just for young kiddos, but they have slides and diving boards for bigger kids (and adults). I do wish that there was a more open area -think rectangular swimming pool area- as the 3.5 foot section gets pretty packed. It's a great value, 5$ each, especially if you stay awhile, and use all the features. You will want to make sure to keep an eye peeled for an open lounge chair, as those get scooped up asap! The park nearby is also great, and a good space to take a break in the shade, maybe even eat a snack/picnic as the concessions get a bit pricey.

Amazing environment and perfect for my kids ages 3-7! The staff was very welcoming and we could have stayed all day.

So if being an adult at a pool isn’t hard enough, there is a blonde guy lifeguard who just saw my friend and I take pictures of each other and he proceeded to point and laugh and tell the lifeguard across from him. If it wasn’t already obvious with the pointing he used his hands and did the camera gesture. That is HORRIBLE to do to people.

The yellow slide hurt my neck a little bit when I went down
