About
The Forest Oaks Pool, situated at 6620 Forest Grove, San Antonio, TX 78240, USA, is a community swimming facility primarily serving the residents of the Forest Oaks subdivision. Managed by the local Homeowners Association, it provides an outdoor recreational space for families and individuals to enjoy during its operational season.
Specific information regarding the exact temperature of the pool(s) at Forest Oaks Pool is not publicly available. As a typical outdoor community pool, its temperature is largely influenced by ambient weather conditions, and it is generally unheated or only seasonally heated.
What are people saying (AI review summary)? The pool receives mixed reviews. Many visitors appreciate its clean water, good atmosphere, and generally attentive staff. However, several significant concerns are raised, particularly regarding safety and facility maintenance. A serious incident involving an attempted abduction, reported by one user, highlights the need for vigilance. Recurring issues include a shortage of chairs and umbrellas, falling fences, and dangerously unstable umbrellas, which have led to injuries (one requiring staples to the head), with alleged inadequate staff follow-up. Another point of frustration is the unadvertised $5 per person admission fee. While most staff are praised for their attentiveness, there was a minor complaint about one lifeguard's conduct.

This pool is nice we live in the area , wish they would put more umbrellas and chairs, we got a lot of stickers on our feet . The staff has always been great ! Just be very cautious with children my grandkids were almost abducted about 1/1/2 ago . 3 men I can’t say race because I did report as well as the staff and I was told it was profiling. Anyway tried to corner my daughter and 2 grandchildren asking inappropriate thing’s following her , I told the 2 lifeguards they ask them to leave they said it also happened at the pool on poss. Those men had unlocked the bathroom door from the inside that went to the breezeway area and were walking around my car . My son was disabled so they knew it was my car ! I’m just saying be vigilant! The staff did as they should have they were young but they shared and listened to my concerns and didn’t just blow us off . Other people at the pool witnessed all of this as well . Stay safe at all pools and public areas ! Our community isn’t the same as when we had our little ones .

Pretty cool place, they have a diving board. There is this one Karen lifeguard who is a stickler for the rules...... But shoves her face with chips while she's supposedly on duty.... Besides that we had fun 😊

So I googled Public Pools and this location came up off of Evers before Huebner, however since it’s Leon Valley it’s not linked to the City of San Antonio so beware this pool does charge a fee of $5 per person to swim. This would have been helpful information if they would simply post it outside the entrance unsure if it’s on the website. I’m going to assume every body all ages count for the charge since the young child at the window didn’t specify and didn’t seem too concern.

Could be a nice pool, with the money they charge for admission they really need to update and fix some things. The covered umbrellas are constantly falling over with any wind, one actually fell on the back of my mothers neck. Nobody cared, and when we told a employee they just tied it up and put it aside for someone else to use. barely any chairs, no end tables to put your drinks on, the fence surrounding is falling apart. Now I’m worried about being under those umbrellas because I feel like it’s going to fall at any time. EDIT: this is how they solved the problem for the umbrellas UPDATE: well it finally happened after them disregarding the umbrella issue this 4th of July ended up with me being in the ER and having to get 2 staples in my head. The lifeguards umbrella caught wind and hit me in the head and they have still not contacted me.
