About
Thompson Pool, located at 2275 N 4th Ave, Tucson, AZ, is a public aquatic facility operated by the City of Tucson Parks and Recreation. It serves as a community hub offering a range of activities including open swim, lap swim, and various swim programs for all ages.
The main pool at Thompson Pool is typically heated. While specific daily temperatures can vary, City of Tucson heated pools are generally maintained at approximately 80 degrees Fahrenheit (26.7 degrees Celsius).
What are people saying (AI review summary)? The park generally receives positive feedback for its spaciousness, large playground equipment suitable for parents, and a fenced dog park. However, there are significant concerns regarding the pool area. Multiple reviews highlight unprofessional and argumentative lifeguards, with one incident detailing a lifeguard threatening to call the police on a teenager. The pool's cleanliness is a major issue, with descriptions of milky, dirty water where the bottom is not visible. Additionally, the pool facilities are noted as worn down, with rusted water slide steps and a non-working slide (though a fix is expected within a year). Despite these criticisms, the diving boards are considered fun, and the park is recommended for events like birthday parties.

Great place to go to, they even have a dog park that is fenced and the dogs get to catch up with what has been going on! Haha!

The lifeguard decided she wanted to argue with my teenage daughter When i told her i was removing her myself she ignored me and continued arguing with my daughter Then threatened to call the cops on her I took a photo of her also! She is around children and needs to act accordingly in a professional manner to be around children This was during the Pool opening.

Dang, these lifeguards are on a power trip. We’ve been to all the pools across Tucson this summer and the lifeguards have been professional, encouraging of all the kids and kind. Not at Mansfield. There must be something extra special they’re guarding in that milky pool water. Can’t be sure as we can’t see the bottom through the cream. 1/10 would not recommend. Will probably come again because it’s hot out.

This pool is okay. It is a little worn down and ad of now the slide isn't working. They said it will be fixed within the next year. The diving boards were really fun though. The have a shorter diving board, and a high dive board. Caution: Children should be extremely careful.

Great big park. Lots of space to relax in. Play ground equipment is large enough for even the parents to go play. The pool is very dirty an the steps to the water slide are rusted. So i hope you've had your shots. Over all great place for a birthday party.
