Reviews
Pool Very clean, plenty of staff, in visible full life guard attire. Lots of chairs a tables around the pool. Might help if more signs posted on outside the gates about pool hours.
I took my grandkids there Saturday and we had a great time. The pool was very clean and the staff supervised the pool very well and we’re definitely going to being back soon
Is too fun and I'm a kid and the staff are amazing the pool clean the outside of the pool is clean.
the city is clearly desperate in their search for lifeguards as they are hiring a bunch of teenagers who spend their entire shift blowing their whistles to communicate/joke with each other! very annoying experience. also, apparently hugging is NOT allowed in the pool!
My go to pool in Philly. Clean pool with plenty of space. There can be a lot of kids at times but the staff is good about keeping the experience enjoyable for everyone.
