About

Clean aquatic center with slides and diving boards, plus friendly lifeguards.

Specific pool temperatures for the Mason City Family Aquatic Center are not consistently published or readily available on public information sources. As an outdoor facility, temperatures typically vary based on prevailing weather conditions and any heating systems in place.

What are people saying (AI review summary)? Reviews for the aquatic center are mixed. Positive feedback highlights the affordability, family-friendly atmosphere, well-maintained facilities, and friendly, helpful staff who prioritize safety. Many find season passes to be a good value. However, several negative experiences are reported, including constant whistle-blowing and overly strict rules, which some adults found stifling. There were complaints about young lifeguards messing around, and one particularly inappropriate comment made to a couple. Another significant issue was poor communication regarding unexpected closures, with one instance of a session being canceled due to 'thunder' on a sunny day without prior notification, leading to inconvenience for customers.

We had a great time these past 3 days at the pool with family and making new friends!!! We came all the way from Gettysburg Pennsylvania, and we had the best time here. It was so affordable too!!!

Took family to pool to have fun. Whistles blowing constantly probably won't be able to sleep right for weeks. Rules are unreal for a place to go have a good time. The lifeguards are young teenagers that mess around with each other the whole time but that's OK. Would not suggest going unless you like getting bossed around. Especially as being an adult.

First and LAST time going here. 2 min after walking in and setting our stuff down. I noticed some bruises on my boyfriend and was pointing them out asking about if he got hurt at work a very short very young lifeguard approached us and said verbatim "this is a family aquatic center not a mating center." Very inappropriate comment for literally nothing PDA related. Continued to get dirty looks the entire time. Definitely not worth my time or money for a family old enough to be the lifeguards parents.

The aquatic center in mason city is always well maintained and the employees always friendly and helpful! Safety is there first priority and it's apparent and much appreciated. This was our first swimming season getting the season passes for our family and it is well worth it and we will be getting them again next season!

We paid for swimming lessons and today the center was closed at our arrival. Some employee guy left at the parking lot said they detected thunders!!! It was 7:00pm, sunny, no rain…nothing!!! Very hot and humid weather. The guy said it will be a makeup session on Friday, but we are out of town on Friday, as it is not a swimming session regularly on Friday! Not even an email to not go there for nothing.
