📍 Pulaski Park, IL
A spacious 30-meter outdoor community pool offering free swimming for all ages. Clean facilities with pool accessibility lift, though limited seasonal hours and frequent lifeguard breaks require schedule checking.
great community pool - free and relatively clean! make sure to check the official schedule on the website for hours and dates. the pool typically opens in late june and closes in late august prior to the start of the school year. swim periods are in 45 min periods (from X:00 to X:45). the life guards close the pool for the remaining 15 mins of the hour. if you live in the area, this a must go to for a relaxing summer afternoon.
🏆 Family Action Verdict
Best for local families looking for a free summer swimming option who don't mind working around restricted schedules. The pool itself is clean and spacious, making it great for relaxed family afternoons. However, frequent closures for lifeguard breaks and limited seasonal hours can be frustrating for visitors.

“The pool itself is very nice. Spacious, open and not too chlorinated. Great spot to relax. Bathrooms are atrocious though. Yikes. Highly recommend changing beforehand.”
