Important Notice Please Read

Swimmers Guide is not connected with any of the facilities listed on this site in any way. We cannot tell you the pools’ opening and closing times or when Senior Aerobics classes are held; we cannot tell you about the availability or cost of swimming lessons; we cannot get you discounted admission to swim at any of them; and we cannot help you find your children’s lost goggles or bathing suits.

We can and do try to give you reliable information about the pools, their locations, their admission policies, and their single-visit or casual swimming prices. Where possible, we include hypertext links to the pools’ own official websites and Facebook pages, clickable email addresses, and links to the websites of the clubs and teams that swim there. Look to those resources within each listing for more detailed information.

The data in the site is under continual review and is revised whenever the site’s editor becomes aware of a change, but, with more than 20,000 listings, a complete, periodic review of every listing takes about seven years to complete; in many places, prices will change four or five times before we have a chance to check the pool’s official website again.

For that reason, we ask for your help: If any of the information in the listing is incorrect, out of date, or could be improved, please tell us. There is an "Edit" button on just about every line of every listing, click on the edit button to tell us what needs to be changed. (No, it's not a place for you to ask us questions. What we have in each listing is the latest news we have.)

Also, please consider checking the listings of the pools you regularly use at home or when traveling, as your knowledge may be helpful to someone else who is unfamiliar with the area and visiting for the first time. Just go to the Add a Pool section of the site, read the first page, then fill out the questionnaire.

Facility Reviews

The pool is well maintained. Heated in winter, to about 78ºF. Cool on entry, it feels great after a few hundred yards. In summer an aerator is used to cool the pool, which tends to get warm.

Open year round, I've swum there when it is 28ºF. (-2ºC.), with a cold rain, blowing wind [guards and coach wishing it weren't so].

It's a standard locker room with individual showers (including soap and shampoo). Bring your own towel and lock (though I think you can borrow both from the front desk). The locker room has a sauna and a whirlpool.
The facility underwent a complete rebuild in 2021 and reopened in 2022. It's an 8-lane 25-yard pool that meets USA swimming requirements. The shallow end is 4ft for safe flip turns and the deep end is 8ft for safe diving from starting blocks.

Outdoor bathrooms and concession area available. There's also a children's activity pool with a zero-depth to 3ft of water. The activity pool is complete with youth slides, slash zones, dumping buckets, and climbing features. There are two new 30 ft slides for anyone 48" and taller.

And there's plenty of deck space, which includes tables, umbrellas, chairs, and chaises.

Programs include:
Swim lessons and swim team for all ages
Water Fitness classes
Lifeguard training
