Indoor pools are heated. Plenty of parking and place for parents (and grandparents) to sit while the kids swim. Don't forget dollar bills for the $1 vending machine. Next door is a very well stocked swim store in case you forget something.

She had him diving under in 2 lessons. I am blown away with her patience, consistency and skill. She also makes it fun for my boys. Their favorite day of the week is Tuesdays because it is swim night. She has given my boys so much confidence, in the water and outside the water because they know they can conquer something difficult that they were once scared of. Highly recommend!

They have an ample chairs (you know, for laying out kind) shaded areas, tables and chairs, and picnic tables, separate picnic area in the back as well as a beautiful lawn area. This is not a water park but for a pool, it's got more than the usual amenities. For two bucks I really can't complain at all! It's a bargain! They have a vendor who cooks hot dogs and burgers on the side and I believe he sells sodas, water, ice cream, chips, and other snacks. There are bathrooms and a single shower. They have a ton of life guard watching your every move but you know it's for a good reason ;) They even have two diving boards on the deep side of the pool. Keep in mind, you cannot use any inflatable items in the big pool. I think the floaties are allowed in the baby pool only.

My 2-year-old daughter previously took swim lessons at Goldfish and LOVED her experience there. We…read moregot a gift card from a friend to Aqua Tots and decided to give it a shot. We took one class here and it completely traumatized her. It was not explained to us that Aqua Tots uses a "pro submersion" technique. On her first class, a stranger held her under water for 5 seconds. She screamed and cried. (Wouldn't you if a stranger held you under water?!) She told us for days that she didn't want to swim anymore. We returned to Goldfish and, after 3 weeks of warming up to it, she is back to loving the water (and goes under of her own free will.) She still tells us to this day that she doesn't want to see the "mean" teachers at Aqua Tots again. We reached out to Aqua Tots to see if this is their normal practice. They explained that it is. That's fine- we obviously do better with the teaching methods used at Goldfish. BUT they refused to issue a refund for the remaining months that I had pre-paid as all sales are final. Lesson learned: DO not pre-pay in advance until you give it a try. And (in my opinion) go to Goldfish instead.

There is a restaurant there, where you can order food; sometimes food takes a long time to come out for big orders. If you buy a tumbler, you can get all you can drink tea and lemonade for the whole summer. Bathrooms and changing rooms are clean. Also, great services like life guards will fill up your flotation device with air pump for you if you ask. A great place to come for the summer with your family.

The family that started it donated the land 52 years ago and with the help of volunteers they created something for the neighborhood to use and enjoy. Now the pool is 52, so she's no spring chicken. She has laugh lines and character that show she has been loved. The people that run the pool are all volunteers and it's the kind of place that you can come and make it what you want it to be! The membership is very reasonable and they have a kiddy poi and an awesome diving board. Bring your cooler, but know that they do have a small snack bar to get an ice cream or something else while you are there. Really there is nothing better than a community pool. A place where you can go and know you and your kids will be safe and people look after each other because people make a place and this one is pretty amazing!

The first and last time we used the childcare my husband and I had a negative experience. Upon…read moredropping off the kids we were given the break down of the rules. One rule seemed weird to us, stating regardless of us all being on the same account, consent would be needed about who can pick up and drop off the children each time (if I dropped them off he wouldn't be allowed to pick them up if he finish first). If this is a safety procedure we respect that just never experienced this before. Mainly the bad review was because of the experience my children had during this visit. They were restricted to play with the toys you all have. Dance time the kids were informed they had to stay on the colorful mat (small area rug) and was not allowed to get off because they didn't want the kids to make a mess. My children ages: 1, 4, 5 and 8. The 8 year old mentioned to me he didn't want to dance but was instructed he had to. The 4 and 5 year old spent most of the time trying to keep their 1 year old brother confined to a small colorful mat. Not sure how long this went on for during our hour workout but the kids mentioned 3-4 songs. It would have been nice for the kids to have access to the toys and to freely play with them until pick up, instead of the workers worrying about them making a mess. Also my most recent visit when I was using the incline treadmill I had an experience with the custodial member (wearing dark blue shirt, hispanic lady, black long hair in a pony tail). Although she was friendly she was mopping the floors in between the treadmills while in use by people. She spent a couple of minutes cleaning under the machine that I was using since I had the incline maxed- all the way up. She was nice and made conversation that the incline was helping her get a deep cleaning. I decided to get off and she was like "no don't put it down", proceeded to clean. I am pretty sure she could have completed a deep cleaning under the treadmills when they are not in use. This type of distraction could have caused an injury especially on treadmills . Hopefully the workers at this location can be more mindful about this in the future. Thanks for reading my concerns. I will also leave a public review for members and future members to be aware.

First of all I love the amount of equipment they have in the exercise area, and I love the vast…read moreindoor pool. I also love that they have a walking/running trail behind their facility with what is probably a man-made lake. The major thing I wish I could change is that when I first started at a YMCA when I was a kid it was a place for anybody and everybody to do some kind of sport or club. Here they don't have very many activities for teenagers. They do have something that a wonderful man named Josh does every so often that my teenager loves attending.. movie night, dodgeball night, pizza night, laser tag night, and so on. But it's hard when you have a 16-year-old that would like to do say a weekly summer soccer camp or maybe participate in some kind of swimming, but the cut off ages are like.. twelve. One of my kids off to participate in basketball but he's past the age limit to join for a summer camp. Like I said back in my day it didn't matter how old you were.. there was no age limit because they wanted people to be off the Nintendo games, away from the television, and away from any kind of trouble they could cause an inside doing something productive and positive. I think we're really stuck with me the most was three days ago while I was in there I heard a mother trying to sign up her sign for one of the summer sports camps but they told him he was too old to do the soccer one and it looks like it really bummed him out. I mean I know he can't go into a younger age group, but he shouldn't have to NOT be able to participate in a sport he wants to do because they have a age cut off. I feel like maybe if they get a few more people in there too work it maybe a 17-year-old can play soccer in a group with other late teens. And this has nothing to do with the Teen Nights! My daughters and son love that they at least have that!
