Facility Notes
The 50-meter pool is operated long course meters in sum, short course yards in winter.
Always check the pool's schedule on the recreation website to be sure it'll be open when you want to go. Bring your own lock.
When we checked this listing in May, 2024, the university website indicated that the 25y, 6-lane pool was out of service and likely to remain so for quite a while.
Facility Reviews
This is the best pool in the Boston area, even better than Blodgett at Harvard!
A superior swimming facility. I swam here two days and was amazed that the pool was virtually empty in the late afternoon.
Beautiful facility. $15 gets an all day pass to the pool, a towel and nice two-level fitness center. $37 for a full week renewable card. The 50m pool was set up with 25y lanes, with Masters taking up the main pool and rec swimming in the diving pool.
This is an excellent pool, with well regulated, speed-segregated lanes and a great temperature for a workout. Bring a padlock. Parking for visitors is available just across Vassar Street in the MIT West structure.

This is a really nice pool. The locker room was clean, and it was open until 11 PM the day I went. Very friendly staff and students.

This is a great pool: 50m with wide lanes and fast swimmers. I checked schedule online and bought a pass online before visiting the facility.
