Swimming pool with a deep end, a diving area and a toddler pool. Friendly staff.
The pools at the complex are heated for comfort. The main pool typically maintains a temperature of approximately 80-82°F (26.7-27.8°C), while the leisure pool is generally warmer, around 84-86°F (28.9-30°C).
What are people saying (AI review summary)? The Richland pool is generally praised for its cleanliness, attentive lifeguards, and clean locker rooms, especially when compared to other local facilities. It features a shallow kiddie pool, a main pool with varied depths including a 12+ foot deep end with a diving board and high dive, and offers well-regarded Red Cross swimming lessons. However, some concerns include children running unsafely on bleachers, and inaccuracies in the online and front desk schedule information. One user also reported a negative interaction with staff after attempting to introduce live goldfish into the pool.

So maybe this isn't fair, but I'm comparing this to the Pasco pool where we go for swim lessons and the Richland pool is so much cleaner and I feel like the lifeguards pay better attention. The locker rooms are so much cleaner. I don't know if they were redone recently or what but they are so much nicer. I don't cringe when I go in there.
The only grip is they let children run and jump onto the bleachers. Back and forth. I was waiting for 2 kids that were doing it to break their necks. I do wish this pool could be bigger and add a slide, but it's not that kind of pool.
I poured a bunch of recently purchased goldfish into the pool to play with them. I wanted to swim with my new friends but the staff did not encourage this behavior.
Schedule isn't right online, same as given information from the front desk.
This is a great pool. There is a shallow kiddie pool, and a deeper pool sectioned off into three different depths, including the 12+ foot deep end with diving board & high dive. We have been impressed with the Red Cross swimming lessons offered each summer by Richland Parks and Rec.
