Glassell Pool

“Nice place to swim. Facilities are a little old and slightly funky, but that’s part for the course for Public parks in LA. Important thing, everything was clean though aged. The staff is very nice and helpful.”

“Great value and lots of lanes so you do not have to worry about waiting. Also the times it is open are fantastic!”

“May 2025: This wonderful 12-lane, perfectly heated outdoor pool tucked behind a row of 80-yr old ficus trees lining Verdugo Rd is perfection. This is a community pool, not a club; it is a well-staffed, well-managed, well-maintained community swim pool offering levels of lessons, but selfishly what keeps me coming back is the pure joy of lap swimming in a clean, heated, open-air pool. It's a throwback in time, you get a little paper ticket to prove you paid ($1 if you're over 50) the changing rooms are simply that. No lockers, just check your bag with the old-school bag check, or take your tote out to your lane after you've rinsed yourself under the no nonsense community shower heads. Again, not a club, a tax-payer funded community pool. I am SO pleased to live in Glassell Park and call this ours. The water is clean and fresh and doesn't stink like chlorine and it's heated to perfection. I am a lap swimmer and nothing makes me happier than this place. I should delete this and gate-keep this absolute gem of a community offering. xx”
