Reviews:

Really excellent pool. Non-summer hours are limited for lap swim, however. The pool reopened after extensive renovations on June 19, 2004. It added about 6 inches of depth and overflow gutters - it's now almost a "deck level" pool. It looks great! Unfortunately, there is little privacy in the women's changing area. Summer hours for laps on weekends - 9 A.M. to noon, winter - 10 A.M. to noon. Just a great pool 'cuz it's 50 meters!
If you disagree with this review, click HERE. If we can fit your comments into this section, we will - "different strokes for different folks" is particularly applicable to the swimming community.
