About

Public pool featuring a lazy river, diving boards, and a children's play area.

Specific pool temperatures for the Grinnell Mutual Family Aquatic Center are not publicly listed. Typically, municipal aquatic centers maintain their pools at comfortable recreational temperatures, often between 80-84°F (27-29°C), though this can vary with outdoor conditions and operational practices.

What are people saying (AI review summary)? The facility receives mixed but generally positive reviews. Many customers praise the friendly staff, abundant and attentive lifeguards, and a wide variety of activities suitable for all ages, noting it offers good value for the price. Reviewers often mention kids loving it and express intentions to return. However, common criticisms include the facility's small size, a reported 'weird smell,' and issues with teens hogging attractions. Some express a desire for more amenities such as a larger lazy river, additional tube slides, or an adult-only swimming area. One reviewer strongly advised against it, recommending an alternative water park.

Friendly staff. Plenty of lifeguards that actually watch the kids and I didn’t feel as if I had to hover over my kids as much! Kids loved it and plenty to do! We will come back!

All I can say is if your looking for a fun place to be don’t go here I’d just head on down to adventure land water park you would have more fun than the grinnell pool 🤷🏻‍♂️

Great pool! Great price. Plenty of lifeguards that do stay pretty active! Lots of different things for kids to swim at. Best lazy river around. Great locker rooms. Does have a small concession stand. Clean facility. Well worth the $6 adult price
