About

Park featuring a creek, a playground, a public pool, and a picnic area, plus trails.

Specific, real-time pool temperatures for Fassnight Park's outdoor municipal pool are not consistently published. As an outdoor public facility, the water temperature typically fluctuates with ambient weather conditions and is generally unheated or minimally heated, aiming for a comfortable swimming range (often in the low 80s Fahrenheit, approximately 26-28°C) during its operational season.

What are people saying (AI review summary)? This highly recommended and beautiful natural landmark, often described as a hidden gem, offers a wonderful experience for families. It features a picturesque creek, ideal for photography and observing wildlife like minnows, crawdads, and ducks, along with walking trails, a playground, and a large pool. The location provides abundant picnic areas (some covered) and a unique 'mini half castle' aesthetic, making it perfect for family outings, community events, or renting for special occasions. Many appreciate its long-standing appeal as a memorable place, though some visitors noted that the bathrooms needed maintenance.

The little creek that goes through this area is so nice for pictures and where I always go to take photos for my kiddos at their milestones. You have running water, really tall cliff that has some rock stairs, trees that lean and brush that makes for a good background! Highly recommend this place for photos!

Wonderful place to still take the family. Little has changed in 30 years to keep this landmark a great memory. Creek is nice and cool and shallow on a hot summer day. Healthy river with tons of minnows and crawdads. Perfect place to teach kids about nature and wildlife preservation.

We had a day to do activities and landed on this park to try out and omg , yall just have to go see for yourself. I didn't know this was hidden behind the school lol I've been by there so many times and just never thought to turn in , but it's like a little mini half castle with such a beautiful open yard space lol. Had walking trail, a little playground . You can even rent out the space, has plenty of picnic tables that is under a roof !! That's always a plus. I didn't see the bathrooms but my kids did say they needed maintenance, spiders and stuff .. pool is huge !!! Would love to take the kids there next summer maybe ! So pool, playground, trail, cute picnic spot , i mean ... what a great place to rent for family reunions, birthdays, special occasions!!! Will definitely return again !

Beautiful place next to a high school and a public pool. Little creek runs through, sometimes you see ducks and other critters. People like to go there and grill.

We enjoyed the Community Wide Play Day. The little ones didn't want to leave.
