About
The Mountain Home City Pool, officially known as the Mountain Home Aquatic Center and located at 980 McKenna Dr, Mountain Home, ID, is a year-round indoor facility. It features both a competition lap pool and a leisure pool with zero-depth entry and various play features, catering to a wide range of aquatic activities for the community.
The competition pool at the Mountain Home Aquatic Center is maintained at a temperature range of 78-80°F (approximately 25.5-26.7°C). The leisure pool, designed for recreational use, is kept warmer, typically between 85-87°F (approximately 29.4-30.6°C).
What are people saying (AI review summary)? The pool is largely praised as an affordable and family-friendly destination, frequently highlighted for its reasonable snack prices, friendly staff, and effective lifeguards. Features like zero-clearance entry and padded floors are appreciated for making it great for children, though it can get quite busy. While there's a minor suggestion for healthier snack options, the allowance of outside food is a positive. However, a significant point of contention for one family was a strict no-life-vest policy for young children, which prevented their kids from enjoying the deeper water and led to them leaving.

Great place for the whole family. Very affordable. Great choice of snacks with green prices. Life guards doing a great job keeping place under control. Our new favorite hangout spot

It's super busy and crowded which is not the place's fault. It's really great for the place. I love that it's zero clearance entrance and that the pool floor is padded and not tiled. It's a great place for kids to just relax and enjoy. I do wish the lifeguards would pay a little more attention because some of the bigger kids were picking on my smaller kids. But as a parent I also was watching and protecting my children
