Facility Reviews
The facility was very clean, not crowded (7 - 9 AM), and has wide lanes. The water was a little warm for me (83º), but it was fine. Maybe they just keep it a little warmer in the winter. There is an awesome view of the mountains through the large windows. They have lap swimming 7 - 10 AM and 11:30 AM - 1 PM. They also have water aerobics classes and free swim for kids at other times. I definitely recommend this facility to other swimmers!
Nice pool! I went at 9 AM on a Friday in November and very few people were there. The water temperature was 81ºF. -- perfect. Current times for lap swimming were 7 to 10 AM and noon to 3:30 PM on weekdays, with slightly longer times on weekends. I think this fall/winter schedule is slightly different from the summer schedule, so check in advance. There are no hair dryers in locker room, but they had a suit spinner!

The pool has backstroke flags. Swim caps are not required. The pool schedule is variable, but I did not see any lanes being shared, and several were vacant.
Lockers are available and free, bring your own lock. Shampoo and soap are provided. There is a centrifuge ("suit spinner") in the men's locker room. The air temperature in the room with the pool and in the locker room feelt like about 82ºF, to my surprise. (The water was also 82ºF.)
The surrounding mountains are lovely, and it snowed while I was swimming.
With the right sense of humor the name of this place can be quite enjoyed. I am 71 years old and there were between thirty and fifty people there. The only ones who appeared to me to be younger than am I were the lifeguards.
