This is the nicest public pool I've been to. I took my grandchildren there today & I was thoroughly impressed. Not only was the pool clean, but the entire area was immaculate. There are nice places to lounge by the pool & metal picnic tables that are shaded. I'm from Phoenix (recently retired to the area). I would've never taken my grandchildren to a public pool there, never. I see here that people take pride in themselves & their community. I appreciate that. Along with the pool, this place has an awesome water slide & lazy river. I give this place 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I hate the way the life guards act towards people who are their own age. They treated us so rudely. We are all over the age of 18 and thought we could swim while on break. This one life guard told us to get out very rudely. So we asked and they said no and we are like ok that’s fine but they were acting like little kids mocking us and letting there friends swim during break. They wouldn’t stop laughing at us and mocking.

What a blast! We love it here, my son gets a little bored with no toys but it's his age group. The lifeguards stay aware and on watch, they all seem like great kids. Never have any issues.

We love coming here. I have 2 little kids, and its so fun for them! The little splashpad they have is so fun. We can bebop around the shallower area and swim while still touching!

Life guards are rude to me and my friends because we asked if we could swim at 10 min break because we all are adults. But they told us no. Then proceeded to let a “lifeguard” with non- lifeguard apparel on swimming the whole time. Will not be coming back here until they change their attitude. All we did was ask a question.
