About

Seasonal outdoor pool with a grassy area, shaded spots, and a limited capacity.

Specific pool temperatures for Traner Swimming Pool are not consistently published. Public recreational pools generally maintain water temperatures between 78-82°F (25.5-27.8°C), with children's wading pools often in a similar or slightly warmer range for comfort.

What are people saying (AI review summary)? This pool facility is generally well-regarded for its fun atmosphere, clean water, and well-maintained surroundings, including very clean bathrooms and shower areas. It features a large pool with a 3.5-foot shallow end and a 10-foot deep end, two deep-end slides (requiring a swim test), and a popular splash pad with a play structure, although one splash pad slide can be slick. There are some shade structures and grassy areas available. However, several significant concerns were raised: entry into the main pool lacks proper steps, relying on a secondary PVC addition. There are strong complaints about the unprofessional conduct of certain lifeguards, including yelling at children, making mocking faces, lying to parents, and causing distress. Additionally, the website's senior pricing is inaccurate, and inner tubes are no longer permitted, disappointing some patrons. Large group swim tests can also disrupt the general pool experience.

lots of fun, no real steps into the pool, but they have a set of stairs that looks like a secondary addition(pvc pipe). Lifeguards a ere nice, there are two slides you can go on as long as you pass a swim test. shallow is 3.5 feet deepest is 10 feet. There is also a little splash pad play structure, the kids had a good time with that. Not a lit of shade but there are about 3 shade structures to help.

This is a very nice pool and splash pad! But, the lifeguards are another story. One of them in particular treated my son and his friend so strange. I'm a Mom who always keeps an eye on her son, so I did notice he ran once and the lifeguard had to remind him of the "no running" rule, which is totally understandable. I later saw the lifeguard yelling at my son and his friend by the lifeguard station and she was making mocking faces to them and threatening she was going to kick them out. My son was in tears at that time. She proceeded to lied us Moms saying she told the boys to stop running five times. I sure as heck would've noticed that as I don't let my kid run wild anywhere. So parents, just be aware of the lifeguards being weird to kids here. I know most are kids themselves, but they need to act more appropriate and professional. 🤷🏽‍♀️

The website on pricing for seniors is more than it says. And they do not allow inner tubes like they used to. But I wasn't happy about that cuz I'm an old lady and I like to float with it.

This pool was really nice. The water was crystal clear and surrounding area very clean. My little one lived the splash pad. It has lots of features including a slide. Be careful at the slide as it gets slick with water and the kids come down really fast. There is a pad at the bottom but my child kept skidding off of it because of speed. The pool is huge and has two slides in the deep end. There were several lifeguards on duty. All employees were very friendly and helpful. A group of camp kids showed up and at that time they asked us to move to the deep end so they could swim test them. There were probably 40 kids getting the test, which is good that they do that, but a little off putting when you have a toddler who doesn't swim well in the deep end. We would of just gone to the splash pad but my child wanted to stay in the pool. All in all it is a nice pool and We had a lot of fun!
