Excellent pool overall - besides the water being a little dirty. The staff was very friendly and I enjoyed the diving board a lot. Really, the only negative thing I would say is that the board adjustment system is bolted down and stuck at the most flexible position so it's more a slingshot than a diving board, but readjusting to it only took about an hour. I'm not a professional diver but I do enjoy doing some cool tricks off the board and teaching the other kids how to do the tricks. The crowd was pretty chill and very nice. I would highly recommend going here, especially with the price of admission being only one dollar for kids and three dollars for adults.

We had a great time here. My boys loved the diving board and slide. The “Z” shaped pool had some thing for everyone. The boys said there were a lot of leaves in the pool, but I found it so much better than other public pools. You have to get there early to get a chair, they run out quickly. The locker room area could certainly use an update, but overall, I’d highly recommend going to Cryer pool.

The Cryer Swimming Pool is great for our whole family. There is an infant section for kids 5 and younger and the actual pool starts very shallow and increases to up to five feet in the swimming area. There is also a diving board and simple water slide in a final section. The price is amazing; just $1 for kids and $3 for adults.

Nice pool and not too crowded but pool water was a bit dirty. Overall a great pool. This was my childhood pool. My friends and I walked to the pool every day to swim. We all had swim passes. Great memories! So happy it is still there and I got to take my niece and nephew there today
