💬 What Visitors Say
- Toddler time ends at 10:15 AM sharp (not 10:30 as previously stated online) - arrive before 10:15 if you have young children, otherwise wait until 10:50 when the general pool opens
- Plan to exit the water 15 minutes before closing time to allow adequate time for showering and changing
- At just $7 for a day pass, this is an affordable option for families, but note that outside beverages and snacks are not allowed - budget for food purchases at the facility
- The facility is excellent for multi-age families with three pool areas including a dedicated toddler area, lap swim, diving boards, slides, and a climbing wall - something for ages 4 through teens
- Arrive by noon if you have a group reservation to ensure immediate entry; the main pool is large enough that it doesn't feel too crowded even during regular hours
