Pool for swimming and cooling off in the summer sun, with space for lounging.
As a public outdoor pool, Upshur Pool is generally unheated. The water temperature is ambient and varies with the weather, offering a cool and refreshing experience during the warm summer season.
What are people saying (AI review summary)? Reviews for the Upshur pool present a mixed picture. While the pool itself is praised for being nice, offering a great atmosphere, and providing ample lounging chairs for cooling off and sunbathing, significant issues were raised concerning staff behavior and safety. Several patrons reported rude and unreasonable staff, including a manager who was disrespectful towards older individuals, and lifeguards who were perceived as overly strict. A serious accusation of a staff member stealing $400 from a patron's backpack was also made, prompting strong warnings about the safety of valuables. Other complaints include inaccurate online opening hours and unresponsiveness to phone calls. One review also mentioned a 'good turnout minus the boxing Peace makers Band'.

Well First i don’t why it says that its open when its not, then i called to ask if the pools were open, but they didn’t respond
The experience I had at the Upshur pool was good, but someone who works there stole my money while I was changing my daughter's clothes in the bathroom. I left my backpack hanging with some wet clothes and a lady who worked there told me that is time to close and after I finished changing my daughter, I left the bathroom and my things were on one of the seats near the locker. So I took my things and left there with my daughter. Yesterday I took out my wallet that I had in my backpack to pay for some things that I chose and in the end I discovered that there was no money at all, my wallet was open, my money was stolen that all that I had, $400 dollars. Please be careful with the valuables you carry with you when you go to that pool. It is not safe to carry money or things of value $$$. I couldn't make any claim because the pool had already closed and it is also closed on Mondays. Be very careful!!!! All this happened on Sunday before six in the afternoon between 5:55 pm.
It was a good turnout minus the boxing 🥊 Peace makers Band
While the pool is really nice and the atmosphere, vibe is great, the staff mainly the manager is rude and unreasonable, she was screaming and disrespectful to an older lady that couldn’t swim fast enough to go out of the pool and that wasn’t the only older lady she disrespected during my visit. The lifeguards don’t let people enjoy the pool because they will pick on every little thing. Besides that the pool is really great!
Chill place to cool off, get some sun, or both. They’re are a large number of lounging chairs on the spacious area around the pool Although they do tend to fill up, they also turnover fairly regularly. Many are in full sun. No diving though.
