California Park Pool (Outdoor)

“I did my lap swim here during the closure of other indoor park pools citywide for annual maintenance. The lifeguards were all so friendly and helpful, the only issue so I have to give you only 4 stars is….. no hot shower after swimming 😫”

“The pool needs better workers that actually wants to work for the past two weeks. I have been coming and by 5 o’clock there are always shutting down the deep end and it’s always the same reason They say it’s for safety reasons. I’m just confused on how is it a safety reason every day for the past two weeks and I’m starting to notice it’s once it hits 5 PM. They just don’t wanna work just say that, but this pool needs to do better it’s already over Pack for everybody to be on one side My kids were very aggravated with all the elbow bumping no space to swim”

“First day I visited the water was clean, few days later I came back for a swim and the water was not clean. Pools need to be vacuum at least 3 times per week and this pool ain’t getting proper sanitation. I wonder if the city of Chicago will be responsible for any disease outbreak at this location. Seems like people might be urinating in the water. What are the lifeguards doing besides sitting there all day and doing nothing?”

“First time at this pool this was Saturday July 19, a bunch of teenage unprofessional staff and lifeguards. The water to wash off is incredibly cold we could barely wash off. Then the staff were kicking us out telling us we had 4 minutes yet were flickering the lights constantly and I could hear them saying they were going to have to lock it. What kind of people do they have working here?”
