Schools out tons of kids but still plenty of room to chill and relax, sunbathing or lounge in the pool on hot summer days

A community pool that experiences heavy crowds during the weekend. While its cleanliness is uncertain, it emits an excessive amount of chlorine. Additionally, numerous items are located at the bottom of the pool, along with dirt from trees and the surrounding area.

The stuffs I came across with are very friendly. The pool is always clean. Depending on the time of day, it might get crowded a bit. But over all my family and I had a good experience so far

Totally unpleasant experience at this pool today, we came with five family members who are our guests and they didn't let us in, they said we were allowed to have only four guests, we have been living and going to the pools in the community for more than 11 years and never had something like this happened before, we have our family physical passes and the active passes in the SR app. SHM

Rude lifeguards and strange rules. If you are stationary in the pool, you will get the whistle blown on you for it. No explanation either. Also people will steal your pool items if you’re not watching them closely.
