About

Kid-friendly, family-friendly facility, featuring several pools, a waterslide and fountains.

While specific daily pool temperatures for West Windsor WaterWorks are not consistently published, community recreational pools of this nature are generally maintained at comfortable temperatures, often ranging from 78-82°F (approximately 25.5-27.8°C), especially during their operational summer season, to ensure a pleasant experience for all visitors.

What are people saying (AI review summary)? This swimming facility is generally well-regarded for its cleanliness, beautiful layout, and multiple warm-water pools catering to different age groups, including a dedicated kids' area with fountains and a water slide. Reviewers often note ample seating (both sun and shade), clean restrooms, and sufficient parking. It's considered a good place to beat the heat, often not overly crowded, especially on weekdays or before 5 p.m. While there are many lifeguards on duty, some reviews mention issues with inconsistent rule enforcement and poor attitudes among staff. Concession availability is a point of contention, with some reporting a stand that is not always open, and others stating a complete lack of concessions. Recent policy changes, particularly a significant increase in non-resident membership fees ($650), have drawn criticism, along with concerns about management's responsiveness to negative feedback.

Used to frequent the pool before there policy changed. Before the change they were completely over staffed and now I can only imagine and no wonder they’re forcing non residents to pay 650 for a membership. The other thing I find disturbing is their lack of response to all of the bad reviews. They just don’t care. 👎🏻👎🏻

This location is very beautiful & clean all things considered. My daughter loves the water so we had to get a membership to a good pool club. I see many reviews where people speak of no concession stand but there is 1 it's just not always open. My only true negative are the lifeguards, college kids with attitudes that believe they hold some type of power. Once lifeguard may be completely ok with something where as another will constantly harass you saying you can't do xyz.

A nice place to beat the heat!! Very clean, and there weren't too many people on a Tuesday afternoon. It's great they have different areas depending on the age and what you'd like to do: diving was separate from the larger swimming area where everyone played, the same for the slide and area for smaller kids.

Wonderful community swimming park. Not too crowded. Multiple pools for different uses. Plenty of seating in the sun and shade. Clean restrooms. Many lifeguards on staff. Beautiful layout . 4/5 stars only because there's no concessions of any kind

Clean warm water pools (3 different ones). Open 11 a.m. to 7 :40 p.m. all days in summer. Can pay at entrance per visit or buy season pass. 2021 family pass for 4 was 420 dollars. Lots of parking. There are too many big umbrellas for seating in shade. Has one water slide good for kids. About 10 lifeguards on duty. 3 pools. One for kids under 5 with great water fountains .the DJ parties happened twice in 2021 on pool are super fun ! Best place in summer for kids to hang out with friends . Not crowded before 5 p.m. always open for free swim, no restrictions on space or time due to any swim lessons.
