About

Pool and aquatics center featuring slides, a diving board and water-park facilities.

Specific, consistently published pool temperatures for the Wellington Family Aquatic Center are not readily available in public information. As an outdoor facility, the water temperature would naturally fluctuate based on ambient weather conditions, sunshine, and air temperature throughout the operating season.

What are people saying (AI review summary)? This aquatic center receives high praise for its amazing and helpful staff, particularly for assisting children, and for fostering a fun atmosphere free of bullying. Patrons appreciate the attentive manager and generally kind lifeguards, though some suggest lifeguards could be more observant. The facilities are extensive, featuring two long slides, a short drop-off slide, both high and low diving boards (with the high dive being a notable highlight), a walk-in kiddie pool with a dedicated baby area, basketball hoops, and various water play features like dropping buckets and sprinklers. Admission is an affordable $3, and concession prices are generally fair, with popcorn being a favorite, though bottled sodas are considered expensive at $3. Clean bathrooms, showers, and lockers are available for a small fee. A significant point of criticism is the policy of not offering refunds or vouchers for pool closures, even when guests have paid for a full day and received limited access. Despite this, many reviewers, including long-time patrons spanning over 30 years, express strong satisfaction and look forward to returning.

They have 2 long slides and a short drop off slide and a high an low diving boards... cost $3 for everyone.... not sure about infants.. They do have a walk-in kiddie pool that also walkins into the deeper side of the pool and also an area for just the babies off to the right as you walk in... You can also rent locks for a dollar for the lockers. Food is fair price everything under $5.... they do accept credit cards if the price is above $15.

I took my grandsons swimming there twice, and one day it did nothing for 3 hours but they wouldn't let us in the pool and they didn't offer any refunds. When you pay for a full day and only get 30 minutes, they should at least offer a voucher or something. The boys still had a blast.

Fun pool. I drive from another town to go here. My kids love it. The kids that are typically at the pool are all super nice and have befriended my kids right away there's no bullying at this pool. The manner is great, she's on top of any concern thrown her way. Some of the lifeguards could be a bit more observant but they're all super kind and welcoming.

Been coming here for over 30yrs and have a great time each time. As a kid it was fun, and even as an adult and parent such a joy to see it bringing happiness still. Only high dive spring board I know of, has a low spring board like some other pools, 3 different slides (no small recreation pool has 3 lol), and then basket hoop, plenty of other water bucket dropping, falls, and sprinkle like mushrooms for the kids along with plenty of swim room. There is a park next door, concession stand, clean bathrooms, showers, lockers for your items, and a baby area. Going to continue to return anytime my family is in town during the summer!!!!
