About

Clean outdoor facility with lifeguards featuring family swimming and swim lessons for kids.

The main recreational pool at Pleasant Valley Pool is typically maintained at a comfortable temperature for general use, often around 80-82°F. The shallow wading pool for children is generally kept at a similar warm temperature.

What are people saying (AI review summary)? The reviews for this community pool present a mixed picture. Positives include its consistent cleanliness both in and around the pool, well-maintained facilities such as lawn chairs, bleachers, and a larger-than-average kiddie pool, and a general sense of safety due to a fenced area. However, significant negative feedback centers on operational issues, with multiple users reporting arriving to find the pool unexpectedly closed despite online listings or the website stating it was open, leading to frustration and wasted trips. A serious safety concern was also raised regarding a child jumping too close to a disabled swimmer, with criticism directed at the lack of lifeguard intervention and a call for a strict no-jumping/diving policy.

Website said they were open. When arrived there was other people waiting as well. I sat in my car for a couple of minutes in case someone was running late. Nothing. No one came to open the pool. Very disappointing.

This is a nice community pool, I don’t have any complaints. It’s always clean in and around the pool. They have lawn chairs and bleachers, and the kiddie pool is larger than average.

We're here. My granddaughter and 2 friends. The listing says the pool is open, yet the gate is locked, nobody around. Other people have come and left. Not good, people.

I am disabled and I was swimming in the pool last night where a kid jumped in the pool right near me basically covering my whole face. I confronted him and the father and told them off and said you don’t jump near people and the life guard sat and watched the whole event instead of speaking up. If that kid had injured me in any way due to jumping in the pool near me, his father and pleasant valley pool and CARD would have been responsible since you stupidly allow jumping. No one should be jumping or diving in that pool at any time.
