About

Bob Cross Park Wading Pool, located in Sauk Rapids, MN, is a seasonal outdoor water feature designed primarily for young children. It offers a shallow, safe environment for kids to splash and play, making it a popular destination for families during warm weather months. The park typically includes amenities like restrooms and playground equipment alongside the wading pool, providing a comprehensive recreational spot.

Specific temperature data for the Bob Cross Park Wading Pool is not typically published or readily available. As an outdoor public wading pool, its temperature would naturally fluctuate with ambient air conditions and sun exposure, generally being unheated and thus reflecting the typical summer water temperature of the region.

What are people saying (AI review summary)? The wading pool is generally well-received, especially by families, and is described as a great, free option for kids on hot summer days. It features a lifeguard, a drinking fountain, a portapotty, and a covered picnic table, with depths ranging from 0.5' to 2' and including a shallow fountain and bottom jets. Staff serving food and drinks at the park are highly praised for being friendly and helpful. It's noted as one of the few wading pools in the St. Cloud area, with a sentiment for more pools over splash pads. However, one review did criticize the lack of benches and 'outdoor bathrooms'.

Great little wading pool! Granddaughters love going here. I believe it is only 1 of 2 wading pools open in the St Cloud area. The other one being in Sartell. Stop making all these splash pads and start putting in more pools even if they are wading pools.

Great little wading pool that's free to the public, perfect place to take the kids on a hot summer day! There's a lifeguard, drinking fountain, portapotty, and covered picnic table. The pool goes from 0.5'-2', with a fountain in the shallow end and some jets scattered on the bottom throughout the pool.
