1 / 2John B. Davis Municipal Pool
📍 Ridgefield Park, NY
Well-maintained municipal pool complex with multiple swimming areas for different ages and attentive lifeguards who prioritize family safety.
This “middle-aged guy with muscles” could hardly even get a word out get a word out after seeing you hitting your marijuana vapes right next to other pool members and guests with children. You’re upset because I didn’t accept you dismissing me and cutting me off every time I began to speak to you. So now you have to find a new pool to use.. You guys should be upset with yourselves, not me. You guys had kids right to the side of where you were laying vaping your marijuana vapes. We have signs and a designated smoking section outside the gate that you have to walk past upon entering the pool, so you can’t say you had no idea. You’re upset and insulted because I’m not a guy that’s going to be dismissed and cut off every time I try to speak. Don’t be upset with me because you guys can’t follow rules and now need to find a new place to hang out. Sorry, this is a family atmosphere and we enforce rules for safety. Good luck to you guys,.
🏆 Family Action Verdict
This is an excellent family pool with multiple areas for different ages, clean facilities, and attentive lifeguards that create a safe environment for children. Best suited for families who appreciate well-maintained facilities and don't mind strict rule enforcement. Be prepared for firm management that prioritizes family atmosphere over flexibility.

“The best pool in the entire tri-state area! The kind lady at the front desk let us in with a one-day pass, and it was worth every penny. I did miss having an adult swim time, but it wasn’t too crowded. It would be great if babies in diapers were limited to the kiddie pool—just saying, it’s safer for everyone and gives adults more space to swim freely. Other than that, everything was great! The bathrooms and changing rooms (with showers) were clean, and the food court had warm meals available for purchase. My kids actually grew up here—they learned to swim at this very pool. We came back 24 years later to show them where it all began. Highly recommended by our family to yours!”

“My family and I were invited to a pool party at John B Davis pool and for the most part my family thoroughly enjoyed our time there. My kids stayed in the three foot area and it was good seeing lifeguards covering every section and that they also seemed to be rotating in and out frequently as to not get tired I guess. I would want to come back and I'm glad we came. If I had one comment it would be as to why the kids couldn't bring arm floating but noodles and vests were acceptable.”

“This is my happy place. First thing I did when we moved here the end of May was apply for membership. The whole staff is great and so welcoming. There are three pools; one kiddie, one regular and one for diving and a slide. They have picnic tables, you can bring your own food or there's a concession stand from Bob-O's Cheesesteaks.”
