About
Facility with two pools, one a short water course, hosting competitions and swimming lessons.
Specific pool temperatures for the Josh Davis Natatorium are not consistently published for public access. However, competitive swimming facilities of this caliber typically maintain pool temperatures within a range optimal for athletic performance and swimmer comfort, often targeting 78-80°F (25.5-26.6°C).
What are people saying (AI review summary)? This facility receives mixed reviews, with several significant negative points alongside some positive attributes. Major complaints center around the extreme heat and poor ventilation, attributed to a translucent roof and inadequate air circulation, with suggestions for a solid roof and exhaust fans. There are also severe pest control issues, specifically multiple large cockroaches in the women's bathroom. Additional criticisms include disorganized event management, insufficient staffing (e.g., lack of timers, expecting guests to volunteer), restrictive policies (no outside food/drinks, clear bag only), and incorrect operating hours listed online. On a positive note, the venue is appreciated for its nice school district pool system, which features two connected buildings with multiple short course pools and diving decks, along with comfortable bleacher seating with backrests and low glare.

Horrible Center!!! It’s hot inside and they don’t have timers.. How can you host an event and don’t have the proper staff.. We pay an entry fee and you expect us to volunteer when we are guest.. Crazy … maybe you should take a page from NISD where they have timers sign up in advance and wave the entry fee.

Ap says it's open. It's not open. Google needs to correct hours of operation

This place needs pest control ASAP! I walked into the women's bathroom, and there were 4-5 huge cockroaches!!!! I informed another mother to be careful when she entered the bathroom, and she said she noticed one earlier at the start of practice. I mentioned it to my daughter and said she has seen them also at this facility. This was the first time visiting this place. As I was jumping around to get away from them, one ran under my shoe, and I stepped on it 😭 I'm not sure I want to go back.

Nice school district pool. Actually, two pools. One with 2 short course pool and cool down, and another with a short course with driving decks. Two buildings are connected. The meet management policy was tricky - no outside foods and drinks and clear bag only, for my swim meet.

low glare and better seating than many pools. The bleachers have back rests and enough room to pass through. The translucent roof makes the building a hot box. The goal is to vent air from garage doors on the East side to vents above the bleachers. But the vents aren’t at the top so there is a hot pocket of air. That hot air is then circulated by the huge ceiling fans. Swimmers are mostly waiting for events outside in the sun. It would be better to replace the roof with a solid one like the Bill Walker pool (which is far cooler) and install exhaust fans rather than circulating fans.
