About

Pool featuring a water slide, a diving board and clean water.

Specific temperature information for the Rec Park Swimming Pool is not readily available. As an outdoor municipal pool, its temperature is typically unheated and naturally fluctuates with the prevailing weather and sunlight conditions.

What are people saying (AI review summary)? This pool is largely reviewed as an affordable ($5 cash) and clean facility, ideal for hot weather. It features a deep end with a diving board, a general swim area, a wading pool, and a water slide, catering to all ages. While staff are generally friendly and accommodating, particularly for private rentals, there's a significant concern about inconsistent opening hours and unhelpful lifeguard responses, which has led to negative experiences. Shade is limited, so visitors are advised to bring their own, though some picnic tables with umbrellas are present.

I hate to give away such an amazing secret place. When we went, it was $5 per person (cash only). The pool is open until 7 pm and on a HOT day (real feel was like 105) it was only moderately busy. Deep end with diving board (11'), nice size 4-5' general swim area and a wading pool for those that are not quite sure they are ready for the deeper water. Oh! And a simple water slide! Fun for kids of all ages. I did not spend long in the bath house, but it was spacious from my quick access. When you plan your visit plan on bringing your own shade - shade is limited.

Very reasonable prices. The pool is very clean and is a perfect place for littles. Nice picnic tables with a few umbrellas for some shade. Definitely recommend!

Found this as something to do with my kids from out of town. We arrived around 10:30 am, all the gates to the pool were wide open. A few other people were in the water swimming, life guards were walking around in the deeper areas with nets, cleaning. My children and I walked in, two of my children were in the pool swimming and a life guard came over and informed me they were closed and didn't open until 12:30 pm. When I said the internet said they opened at 9 am, she made me feel as if I didn't know where I was , I showed her what Google says and her response was "well thats wrong, we don't open until 12:30 and we close at 7". But your gates are open and there was other people swimming?? After kicking us out, every one else left as well. Won't go back.

Our softball team was in town for a tournament and we were able to rent the pool for a party while we were there. The staff was so friendly and accommodating. The pool was so nice and clean. Our group had an amazing time.
