What are people saying (AI review summary)? The pool is generally affordable and offers a fun toddler pool and a big adult slide. However, there are some inconsistencies reported regarding cleanliness, and staff performance, with some young workers being rude and lifeguards occasionally inattentive or on their phones. Concerns were raised about the baby pool's lack of age restrictions and confusing lifeguard policies, including mandatory breaks despite 'no lifeguard on duty' signage. Patrons also noted a policy of no outside food and a $4 entry fee for all, including non-swimming guests.

Really think you should have an age restriction for the baby pool.

This year they decided that everyone in the baby pool needs to take a break with the lifeguards, even though they have signage stating no lifeguard on duty at the baby pool

Very hot lifeguards. Hardly anyone there, 15 people. You cannot bring in your own food. It costs $4 to enter, including NON SWIMMING kids or parents.

The pool was very clean the last time I was there but one time before that I got to say I didn't think it was very clean the employees are usually nice except for a couple of the young workers they can be rude and a couple of the lifeguards I don't think do their job well they're on their phone or not paying attention to possible roughhousing or drowning like they should be
