About

Recreational park with a football stadium, basketball court, swimming pool, playground, and picnic areas.

Specific operational temperatures for the pool(s) at Morris F.X. Jeff Sr. Park are not publicly available. As a public outdoor facility, the pool likely operates at ambient water temperatures or is heated to a comfortable but unspecified range during its open season.

What are people saying (AI review summary)? Reviews for this facility or park are mixed. Positive feedback highlights include excellent swim aerobics with a phenomenal instructor (Giselle), a state-of-the-art pool, professional and friendly staff, clean bathrooms, close parking, and a peaceful atmosphere suitable for activities like pickleball and dog-walking. However, significant concerns were raised regarding park maintenance, the absence of designated walking or biking trails, leading to dangerous conditions with speeding cars. Some visitors also expressed discomfort due to suspicious activity (people in tinted cars, possibly smoking), a perceived lack of security or patrol, and consistently closed bathrooms, leading to an overall feeling of unsafety and a lack of family-friendliness for some, especially single parents, who opt for other parks for safety.

I attend the swim aerobics and it’s very nice. The instructor giselle is phenomenal. She’s a retired PE teacher and she takes it out on us. Love her.

This is where I go to take my pups so that they can run in the grass. This place is always peaceful & relaxing.

This park could be so nice if it was just kept up with. They really need a designated trail or walking area. I've taken my daughter to ride her bike and people just speed through without any regard for the kids, it's very dangerous! I noticed today the track gate was open, it's never been open any other time we've gone so I'm not sure what the deal is with that. The kids playground area is nice. There's always people just sitting in their cars with black tinted windows, maybe they're just smoking, which is all good. But as a single mom with 2 kids I feel uncomfortable walking on that side street. It doesn't seem like the park is ever patrolled, if someone wanted to they could do something bad and get away with it. It's unfortunate that I've had to pass this park up and ride all the way to city park just to feel safe. The bathrooms are never opened, the park just needs to be completely redone and patrolled more. To say it's a park , it's not very family friendly. Seems more like a smoke spot.
