LACES Pool
📍 Mid-City, CA
Neighborhood covered pool offering affordable swimming with free lessons for many families. Great for lap swimming and recreational swim times without the crowds of larger facilities.
We are so glad to have this local treasure in the neighborhood! Summer swimming lessons happen almost every day and are free for many families. My kids developed such great swimming skills going to these. And on Sundays, they love the recreational swim hours which we sometimes do as a family (and each visit is SUPER affordable). Just be aware that the pool tends to run a bit cool. So if you or anyone in your family is very sensitive to temperature, you may want to keep your visits to warmer days.
🏆 Family Action Verdict
This covered neighborhood pool is excellent for families seeking affordable swimming with free lessons for many families and budget-friendly recreational swim times. Best suited for kids who aren't sensitive to cooler water temperatures, though instruction quality may vary by instructor. Perfect for regular swimming practice and lap swimming without the crowds of larger facilities.

“Friendly staff, clean, well-managed. Lots of bleachers for parents to observe kid's lessons. Water medium warm, but comfortable enough for lap swimming. Parking In School lot. Large dressing rooms. 2 diving boards. Not many lap lanes. Limited hours. But an overall enjoyable experience.”

“I went lane swimming at this pool. It's really nice to have a covered pool in the neighborhood. It's really not busy for adult lane swimming, no need to book your lane in advance and no time limit (like Culver City pool😒). They will have kids classes on the side, really not a problem to me. Have your own locker and bring the exact cash, they don't have change! Also, showers are freezing cold so don't plan on it. The pool is heated though but pretty small so you'd have to do a lot of lengths to get your miles in. For $4 (parking free), it's def worth it!”
