Facility Notes
The club also has an outdoor, seasonal pool ,approximately 45f x 25f; it's unstriped and appears to be quite shallow throughout.
Facility Reviews
The gym, itself, is very nice; the pool, however, is very shallow. The posted depths are 4' and 3' (at the shallow side), but the water was at least 3" lower than that, leaving the shallow side at 2.75' in depth. That made it unsuitable or even dangerous to seriously swim laps. My fingertips were touching the bottom during freestyle.
It's a shame, because the facility is very nice, with good water temperature and clean water. Pace clocks, pool buoys, and kickboards are available for use.

The previous reviewer is correct about the posted depths, but when I went today the pool was full to the edge, so it was less of an issue than if it wasn't all the way full. The shallow end is just deep enough for a flip turn (I'm 6'2") - so be aware if the water level drops it may indeed be a problem. That aside, it's a really nice pool.
They've now got a booking system in place, so you have to book a specific lane for a specific period of time (15-60 minutes - trying to figure out how to do longer!). This is good because you always have the lane to yourself, but also a bit of a shame as two people in a 25y lane isn't really an issue.
Three of the six lanes were in use when I went at 3 PM on a December Saturday. The woman I spoke with for the tour said it's busier in the evenings than in the mornings during the week.
