About
Indoor pool offering swim lessons and a gym, plus basketball courts.
The specific temperature of the pool(s) at the Berkeley Carroll School Athletic Center is not publicly disclosed on their official website or readily available public sources. However, school athletic pools are generally maintained at a comfortable temperature typically ranging from 78-82°F (25-28°C) to accommodate both competitive swimming and recreational use.
What are people saying (AI review summary)? Reviews for the facility are mixed. Swim lessons are highly recommended, with parents praising the knowledgeable and friendly instructors, despite some finding the pool water chilly. The basketball courts are also noted as nice. However, significant drawbacks include the pool being too cold for many, and the changing rooms receiving strong criticism for lack of privacy, being overcrowded, hot, uncomfortable, and slick. The 'community' swim program is also described as problematic due to booking difficulties and unexpected closures. While front desk staff are generally considered pleasant and helpful, and some areas like the pool seem renovated, the overall facility experience, especially regarding changing rooms and pool temperature, leads some patrons to state they will not return.

The pool is way too cold. Changing rooms have no privacy. I definitely won't come back.

Before the pandemic my kids had swim lessons here and we recently went back for Dribbl basketball. The facilities are in decent shape and it looks like they renovated the pool area a bit. The folks at the front desk have always been pleasant and helpful.

Their “community” swim program is a joke. I’ve been trying to book an evening time slot for 8months, and when I finally did get a spot they charged my credit card, I showed up and the pool was closed for “ maintenance “.

We have really enjoyed swim lessons for our son here. Yes, the water is chilly, but he is so happy to be swimming the rarely complains. I would highly recommend swim lessons here! We’ve worked with a couple instructors and found them all to be friendly and knowledgeable.

Nice basketball courts, pool can get a bit crazy and packed on the weekends. While the swimming lessons themselves are top notch, the facilities leave a lot to be desired. The changing rooms are over packed and extremely hot and uncomfortable. Gets super wet and slick in the winter time.
