β€œBest pool I have ever visited, lifeguards are calm they make you do swim test to go into the deep end and it was a great experience! Would recommend $1 per person.”

β€œPretty good. I went during a weekday evening. Adults are $4 and kids are $1. I forgot the age range and senior price. They allow adult lap swimming on one side of the pool. The recreational swim area is a little small and when I went there were like 3 lifeguards hanging around just a couple feet away, reminding us of the rules or telling the kids to stay away from the stairs or don’t do chicken fights and whatnot lol The kids didn’t like being corrected kind of a lot but they got over it because they love swimming. Most of this pool is shaded because the front building is so close to it. Harbor Pool is sunnier and more out in the open so I prefer that but either way, πŸ€·πŸ»β€β™€οΈ I’d go again.”
