It was great, they would have their fill of fun and then we could go home and rest. Now years later my wife and I joined the newly renovated pool with all new lounge chairs, locker and rest rooms and a new kiddie pool with a slide. It is a huge improvement. It was ok before and now it is so much better. We came here quite a bit this year and really enjoyed it. There is no food allowed by the pool area but they have a snack stand with tables and benches where you can either purchase food or bring your own. We had a very nice time this season and will join again next. They also have other amenities at the park such as tennis and a meeting room.

There are a few picnic tables and grills on the lawn. No pool lounge chairs or towel service so bring your own chairs, picnic blankets, food/snacks and other accoutrements to enjoy a leisurely summer day. Facilities are clean and well-maintained. Very kids/toddler-friendly. The sizeable shallow end has several sprinklers/splash fountains for children to play in, and there are slides on both the kiddie and adult sides. Also a playground in the back (not affiliated with the pool). There are always many life guards on duty every time I've gone. The pool is accessible only to Clarkstown residents and their guests, so if you're not a resident befriend someone who is. You must obtain a Clarkstown resident ID card first at the registration office at 31 Zukor Road in New City. (The pool won't simply accept a driver's license.) Rates can be either daily or seasonal for individuals or family, and are very reasonable compared to similar community pools.

Back in the day we used to refer to this beleaguered mud hole as "Nanuet Snake" for the inundation…read moreof various slithering creatures who would join you on your swim in what was then a dark and unknowable crater that had more in common with Loch Ness than 20th century suburbia. It's no exaggeration that these monsters from the deep probably kept a legion of child psychiatrists in full time employment. On a recent visit it was nice to see that the previous snake-ridden den of iniquity has long been been replaced with a legitimate pool and that the mythological beasts of years past have been slayed by chlorine and actual cement walls. You can even see right to the bottom. What a concept. This is what Nanuet Lake should have been like all along... no thanks whatsoever to my parents who thought this was some tough love version of Shangri La, albeit minus the all consuming bliss one often finds in paradise. I kid about my parents (almost) and am happy to bestow five easy stars for a childhood reclaimed. I still hate snakes.

Echo Park is a gem. It's not a private country club or hotel and if you want that kind of…read moreexperience you should probably go to one instead of Echo Park. For a few bucks you get a diving pool, indoor and outdoor pools, steam rooms and sauna. It's open every day of the week from the early morning to nearly 10pm (normally, pre-covid). The indoor pool is lined with plants and palm trees. Outdoors there's room to sunbathe. There are programs for children and older people as well. You really do get a lot for your money. I can't say much about anyone's attitude, I just pay and I go in. The lifeguards are very good here and manage what can be very rowdy kids and teens in summer. Who in their right minds thinks that running on wet concrete would end well, otherwise? My only gripes are with the older people who come here and take up swim lanes expressly meant for fast swimming, or jump into lanes where people are already doing laps and then decide to just slowly walk. I do wish the lifeguards would be stricter and tell them to go to other parts of the pool, instead. And some of the rules they have posted about "obscene language" or changing clothes in the locker rooms seem weirdly out of time. Despite that, what's better than coming to the pool after a long day at work in the evening with the stars out and crickets chirping or on a hot day?
