About

Casual community swimming pool featuring basketball courts, picnic tables and restrooms.

Specific pool temperatures for the Knightdale Community Pool are generally not publicly advertised. As an outdoor, seasonal community pool, the water temperature is typically unheated and ambient, naturally warming with the summer weather and sun to provide a refreshing experience for swimmers.

What are people saying (AI review summary)? This community pool generally offers a clean environment with friendly staff, ample parking, and good amenities including a kids' play area, basketball court, and plenty of shade, making it a viable option for visitors despite its secluded location. However, several significant drawbacks were noted. Visitors complained about mandatory 15-minute breaks every hour, which were disruptive for children. There were also criticisms regarding staff not actively cleaning the pool (e.g., dead frogs) and a lack of 'vibe' due to no music. Other issues included the pool being super crowded at times, and an unpleasant encounter with a lifeguard regarding closing time, especially when managing a large group with young children and elderly adults. A major negative point was the severe mosquito problem, which significantly detracted from the experience outside the pool.

We were visiting family and trying to hit the beach but was just too far of a drive. We found this community pool that accepts visitors for the day. Great friendly staff. The pool and the area is clean and plenty of parking. Also a basketball area , kids play area and plenty of shade. It definitely an option to try if you are in an area visiting. The pool is seclude as is not that easy to get unless you have gps but well worth it.

Every last of the hour, they blow the whistle for everyone to get out for 15 minutes. While they sit there and just watch everyone sit outside the pool, kids crying because they don’t understand. 4-5 employees just watching you swim the whole time, and don’t pick up the dead frogs in pool or grab a net. No music, no vibe at all. I did not find it fun nor welcoming

It was a good day for the pool. We had got the kids out to the community pool at 4. We were aware that they closed at 6, so we got out 5:55 and started packing up for 4 children, 1 infant and 2 elderly adults one with a cognitive impairment. A lifeguard approached us at 6:05 to say that we need to leave. As if we can just snap a finger and everyone is in the car. The lack of patience and tact left us with a sour impression. Especially since I can only do so much with my elderly parents who need to move slow and repeat every thing.

Pool was great. Mosquitoes ruin the vibe. They need a crop duster to fly in and spray the area. It’s bad. Bring bug spray if you’re not in the pool.
