What are people saying (AI review summary)? Reviews for this pool facility are largely positive, frequently praising it as a fantastic and family-friendly location for parties, swimming, and summer fun. Patrons appreciate the spaciousness, amenities like a dedicated kid's pool, main pool with diving boards and a large water slide, ample seating, clean restrooms, and a well-priced snack bar. Staff and lifeguards are often described as helpful and nice. However, one highly negative review reported a 'terrible experience' due to an inattentive and rude lifeguard (Mike) who was on his phone, alongside a significant customer service issue where a scheduled reservation was not honored without prior notice or apology, raising serious concerns about safety and patron respect.

Plenty of room. The lifeguards are helpful and nice too. Slide and diving areas are so much fun too. Highly recommend coming here for summer or on hot days. Especially with friends and family.

**Terrible Experience – Avoid at All Costs** If I could give zero stars, I would. This place is a complete disaster, starting with the lifeguard, Mike, who was not only rude but completely inattentive. He spent more time on his phone than watching the pool, and when approached with a problem, he responded with pure attitude and zero professionalism. To make matters worse, the customer service is mind boggling. We showed up during our scheduled swim time that we reserved through them, only to be told they don’t reserve the pool in summer! No prior notice, no apology, just a shrug and a “not our problem” response. Absolutely unacceptable. Save your time. Go anywhere else where they actually respect their patrons and care about safety.

Our favorite pool out of all the MWR pools. Great kid pool area, only 18" deep. Main pool is nice and starts at 4 ft deep. A few diving boards in the deep end and also a large water slide the drops off into the deep end. Usually 4-5 lifeguards in duty. Plenty of lawn chairs, patio benches, picnic benches and a pavilion for parties. Bathrooms have lockers, showers, restrooms and changing tables for babies. There is a nice privacy fence surrounding the perimeter for my privacy from the roads around. Hours are usually 11-1700 everyday but closed on Tuesdays. There is a snack bar with a good selection and good prices. They do except debit and credit card.

We really enjoy the pool and family-friendly atmosphere. The diving boards are fun and there’s a lot of room!
