About
The Washington Borough Pool, situated at Lower Park Dr, Washington, NJ 07882, USA, is a popular community outdoor swimming facility. It typically features a main pool, a dedicated kiddie pool, changing rooms, and lifeguard supervision, serving as a primary recreational hub for local residents during the summer season.
Specific pool temperatures for the Washington Borough Pool are not publicly available or typically published. As an outdoor municipal facility, its water temperature naturally fluctuates with the prevailing weather conditions and is generally unheated.
What are people saying (AI review summary)? The pool generally receives mixed but largely positive feedback. Patrons often praise its spaciousness, uncrowded conditions, and family-friendly amenities, which include splash pads, kiddie pools, and a slide. Many appreciate the attentive lifeguards, convenient hours (typically 10 am to 7 pm during summer), and provided amenities like umbrellas and lounge chairs. While some enjoy the playful and engaging teen staff, common drawbacks include the main pool's relatively shallow depth (around 3-5.5 feet), which may not appeal to those desiring deeper water, and limited concessions (only drinks, snacks, ice cream), requiring visitors to bring their own food. A significant negative review highlighted concerns about dirty pool water, bugs, poor rule enforcement, and potential for rashes, recommending immediate rinsing after swimming. Operational details include a mid-June opening, Labor Day closing, and a slight increase in membership fees.

I always enjoy the pool. It's close to my house , opened at 10 a.m. most of the summer, and they provide umbrellas and lounge chairs which is convenient. They have the splash pad for the little ones, and a kiddy pool as well. The only downside is the pool only goes up to about 5 1/2 feet. Most older kids and adults like to swim in deeper water . But this pool works fine for me . Also you have to bring your own food which we do, the concession stand only has drinks , snacks and ice cream.

Beautiful and roomy. It was not too crowded, especially early in the afternoon. Even if it were, there's plenty of room to spread out. It goes from 3-4 feet, so it was a nice place for my 4-year-old, who could practice some skills while actually being able to touch bottom. The kiddie area is really nice. Very large baby pool with seat that is perfect for adults. Nice splash pad, too. Kids love the slide. Bonus - you are in for a karaoke treat lol. The teens working there enjoy their job, which is nice compared to the grumpy teens working elsewhere. They engaged with the swimmers through the speakers and treated us to their lovely singing voices lol 😆 hey, whatever. It adds a playful atmosphere. Also, I felt my kids were truly being watched. The lifeguards were attentive and moved themselves around to always have their eye on the action. In glad they enjoy their jobs.

Pool water is dirty. Rash is inevitable. Rinse right after going in. Rulz not enforced. Bugs are bad. No swimmies for kids . Nasty
