About

Clean public pool with a saline system offering swim lessons, hot tub and parent/tot classes.

The Lap Pool at the Fife Aquatic Center is maintained at 80-82 degrees Fahrenheit (26.6-27.8°C). The Leisure Pool is kept at a warmer temperature of 90-92 degrees Fahrenheit (32.2-33.3°C), making it ideal for play, therapy, and swim lessons.

What are people saying (AI review summary)? This venue elicits mixed feedback from visitors. Many commend it as an excellent choice for children's birthday parties, highlighting the clean environment, courteous, friendly, and accommodating staff who adeptly manage large groups. Private swim lessons are also positively reviewed, with staff effectively gaining children's trust. Guests often appreciate the value, fun factor for casual swims, and the convenience of an on-site store. The facility now features a waterpark area with party tables, though a previously available playground has been replaced, with a new one reportedly planned. However, there are significant criticisms regarding event booking and organization, including instances of inaccurate scheduling, unfulfilled promises (e.g., provided amenities like juice boxes or goodie bags), and a disorganized reservation system (e.g., using sticky notes without contact information), leading to notable disappointment. For swim meets, the pool is noted as being 25-yard short course only with limited spectator seating, and safety concerns were raised about crowded walkways during events.

Decent pool for a swim meet. Only short course, 25 yard lane length with no option to change lane length to meters. Not very much spectator seating or swim team seating either. I was thinking if there was a fire it would be a nightmare since there were parents/swimmers standing and sitting, blocking doorways and in the walkways/aisles. The playground outside has been replaced by a little waterpark. I saw signs for the planned playground in the fenced lot next to the waterpark. The waterpark area had some tables separated from each other for kid's birthday parties.

My experience with this place has been great as a venue for my daughter’s 8th birthday. The place was clean, courteous staff, very accommodating and friendly behavior made for all the fun. We had a packed house of 40 kids but the staff was able to accommodate all of it. Our guests had a great time and fun. Definitely recommend this place

Took my granddaughter here on a summer night and she had so much fun! She played at the small outdoor playground while we waited for it to open for the evening swim. Neat little store at the entry, good for whatever swim stuff you might have forgotten, snacks, drinks, etc. Pool area for her age and time window was small but she was happy with it. Almost rated it 4 stars for that reason but considering it was so inexpensive and she can't wait to go again, 5 stars all the way. We didn't use the locker rooms, etc since we were so close to getting her home for her bath. Good location overall though. Recommended.

I made a reservation here back in February for my sons 3rd birthday. The person who took my info and made my account seemed very new, but made sure all my questions got answered regarding bringing my own decorations. We set the time, which I was told 3:30pm. Sure, sounds great! Come to party time, we were told we were 30 minutes late due to the party starting at 3pm. I was very adamant that I was told 3:30pm was an option. Okay fine, we lost some pool time so we extended to 45 minutes of pool time and less time with cake and presents as a compromise, totally okay. The website said juice boxed and goodie bags would be provided, which was a major selling point, which the gal who took my reservation confirmed. But there was none. They had my reservation on a *sticky note* and said they would have called me, but didn't have my information as they weren't the ones who made my party reservation. What on earth?? Very disappointed, I really wanted to like it and have a good time. We were not allotted any time for clean up either as there was a party immediately after us. The only pro, was the kiddie pool. Which was another huge selling point for us. Anyway, I would love to come back if things changed. We love pool parties. I hope this was as kind as possible. ♡

My son had his first private lesson yesterday. He was a little afraid in the beginning but the staff are very friendly and quickly gained my son's trust in the water.
