What are people saying (AI review summary)? The pool is generally considered an affordable and fun summer destination for families, offering a large area for kids, slides, and spray features, and allowing for a 'picnic vibe' with outside food. However, there are significant drawbacks. Several reviews highlight issues with new management, including rude staff (especially a female manager), inconsistent policies like stopping entry after 5 PM or due to capacity/staffing shortages, and a no-refund policy even when the pool closes early. Other concerns include limited parking, the pool only accepting cash or physical cards (no tap), and early closures due to staff shortages. Despite these operational and customer service issues, many still find it a good value for summer entertainment.

The pool has ALWAYS been a great place to bring the family, however now it’s under new management. They stop allowing guests after 5pm The “manager” a female with a horrible perm and burnt blonde hair was EXTREMELY rude. We were told they met capacity so we couldn’t go in. Then we were told they were under staffed so we couldn’t get in. But we also watched the cashier leave at 5pm so I’m not sure what that was about. A lifeguard said the manager had sent the cashier home because they reached capacity but was nice enough to ask if I wanted to speak with the manager because he himself was unsure. I honestly wasn’t expecting her to be do disrespectful and rude. In the middle of me asking questions she shut the sliding door in my face and put up the “pool is closed” sign and walked off. She did the same thing to my TEENAGE daughter and her friends a week prior. Nasty customer service and distasteful demeanor.
Definitely a place for summer fun! The pool gets crowded but it’s fun for all ages. It’s patio tables. But folks bring lawn chairs, coolers & snacks, blankets and have a full pool picnic vibe…Niice
Great pool with a large area for kids to swim and play on the slide and spray features.
Didn’t see the prices listed but 1 adult and 3 year old was $10. They sell swim diapers if your little one need it. Pool closed early (4pm) due to shortage of staff but they don’t tell you they closing early til after they take your money then say NO REFUND!!!! Only take cash or have to have the physical card (NO TAP)! Parking: out front 8 total (2 handicap and 6 regular) usually full. When that lot is full you have to go to the church parking lot and walk over!
Best place to go for the summer if u don't wanna spend a lot of money, me and my family loves it.
