This pool is truly a gem, the staff is excellent, all well mannered and helpful, all of the equipment is in good repair and safe (specifically the diving boards) and lifeguards all kind attentive people most on their way to college. I wonder who is being called elderly LOL. It's been a great summer at the pool.

The pool is very nice and a good experience for family’s as well as the food, but some of the staff are poorly mannered and disrespectful. Also, some of the diving boards were starting to break and crack. If you are coming with a big group of kids I would beware of some of the young lifeguards. However there is one elderly life guard who is kind and respectful

Beautiful huge clean pool with a lovely wooded area surrounding it. The entry fee and snack stand were all reasonable prices. Very nice well mannered young staff!

Toxic lifeguards got kicked out for “reasons” yelling at 10yr olds, dirty pool, urine detected in the pool with no treatment. Horrible place in total.
