Facility Notes
The "pool" described above is a partially enclosed section in a large lake; two piers run from the shore out into the reservoir. In addition, there are sections going into and across the reservoir with bouys laid out for 200m, 400m, and 750-metre open-water swimming courses.
See the Open Water Swimming section of the reservoir's website for information about scheduling and requirements that must be met to be permitted to use the facility.
The facility also has a Facebook page.
Facility Reviews
A fabulous open water swim, but not for the faint of heart. The water is cold! You have to do the 200m course in one stretch as there's no place to stop along the course. A great experience. No lockers; you leave your belongings outside by the reservoir, but the reservoir is not accessible unless you've paid to get in to swim.
